OK Enough is enough! It’s been too long since my last post. I’ve had a few changes lately which has meant pulling out some old paintings, organising art stuff and documents etc. The tacky unglamorous side of art. It was then that I realised what the original purpose of this blog was – someone wanted to buy a painting, I had no website and my storage system was pretty much non-existent.
So I began the laborious task of putting each painting up, making notes on series but then I got a little excited. Instead of scribbling notes about exhibitions in my sketchbooks, I began blogging. It was a huge worldwide scribble pad that visitors could like.
I helped friends set up their blogs, began making art quizzes and photographing. In the sorting I have come across paintings I had forgotten and sketches that brought back memories of places and people.
I haven’t blogged for a while, my life has taken a turn recently. I miss blogging, I miss painting and yesterday I could feel the desperate need for drawing returning. I don’t know if that means I am getting better or trying to fill a need. Either way – charcoal and gouache is a good remedy and a nice way to scribble on my world-wide sketchbook.
Beautiful!
Thanks!
Beautiful – welcome back
Thanks Dan, it’s like seeing old friends.
Welcome back, Sue. Your work is beautiful; don’t be a stranger. 🙂 Coming from grey, rainy Britain, what I love the most are the colours.
Its stinking hot here and spectacular storms at night. I dream about a snowy Xmas
It’s about time you came back around.
Thanks Rick its been a long time between drinks. I mean posts.
“Stuff” gets in the way of painting and it’s all to easy to forget priorities ! It’s good to have you back ! Have a virtual glass of something warming on me ! : ) }
Thanks Chris I just might make that virtual glass a real one – maybe a cold one, its pretty hot down here.
Ha ha ! It was 27 degrees F at 08.00 this morning ! It’s warmed up a bit since but my drink will be a nice hot cup of tea ! Enjoy that sun ! : ) }
Welcome back – so nice to see your wonderful paintings again.
Youre very kind. Thanks Richard
good to have you back. Best, Blackpaint
Art is not a luxury, it is a necessity! Welcome back 😉
Thanks Keryn you’re right! Cheers Sue.
