I was told by your nephew, *faile35, that we live close to each other.

It's great to meet another Pacific Northwester that's an artist! :D We seem to grow a lot of them out here... must be all of the rain.

Good artists don't grow on trees. Remember: when you sell cheap commissions you're ruining the market for every artist who could hope to make a living on what they do. Your time and talent is valuable.

I understand, Bob.I sometimes wish there were more hours in the day-for painting!! It is autumn here now, & I lose the light at about 5.20 pm.But, I suppose, if I got up earlier!...

I've been a little negligent in responding lately. Please forgive me. There is a good group of traditional artist here that are very supportive. I've been doing art for about 40 years, with interruptions from time to time. I really got serious again about 6 years ago. DA helps me to discipline myself as I try to post things frequently because of it. It will be exciting to see your works as you post them. :rose:

I am glad to hear this, as I am pleased to write to someone else, who is trad,plus a bit more "mature"!! ha ha!
I havent done any art today, too busy, but I usually do something every day.how about you, -your gallery is certainly well stocked with great stuff indeed! I get where I literally cannot stop until I get what I want down on canvas! I think I am obsessed! The weird thing is, I did art when I was young, but I hadnt done a thing up until 14 months ago! I am just starting out, hence the muddle & lack of discipline in my stuff.How long have you been doing your art? This is really interesting, to meet other people here.
cheers,anne.
