I found a great quote for us both today. I was reading an Old interview of the poet Kenneth Patchen and he said, "...Everytime Paul Klee approached a canvas, it was with a feeling of 'Well, Here I am. I know nothing about painting, Let's learn something, Let's feel something.'" How brilliant. I will look into the Follower gadget.

I just used my knife this evening to make cat whiskers. <br /><br />After your nice comment on my last blog post I finally got the chance to check out your blog. I remember your painting with the woman holding the coffee cup...saw it on Trodden Path. Love that painting. Your art is so beautiful and so expressive. I am so impressed you are self-taught. You paint with such great drawing skill. This painting is off to a really good place.<br /><br />Have you thought about adding the Follower gadget onto your blog? It makes it easier for other bloggers to follow you. Lisa Graham https://www.blogger.com/profile/17908986924935514538noreply@blogger.com
