Serious Art for Serious Artists

I have entertained the idea of incorporating daily paintings into my routine. Best decision ever and recommend it for all serious artists. If you are determined to make a living as an Artist, you need to treat it like a full time job. That includes painting. Lots of Painting.

Over the last 30 days I have seen my work take on a higher level of energy I have been trying to strive for. Just in 30 days I have seen a huge difference as I explore my skills through the process of Daily paintings. The idea behind them is to have more beginnings and endings for my paintings, providing opportunities to see what works and what does not work faster.. 

Daily Paintings provides me more opportunities to analyze and self critique for continuous improvement.  I find it all exciting and challenge you to go for it as well. 

 

Follow Your Dreams

I can't say it enough... Find your passion and Go For It. Don't be afraid to go out there to follow your dreams, aspirations and goals. My dream has always been to be a Professional Artist since I could remember. I am doing it today and the most happiest I have ever been.    I stopped listening to all those who hold the art profession in the light of starving artist... no one makes money as an artist . I stopped taking paths that led me away from my goals, to be a Successful Professional Artist. People are out there doing it...living their dreams as Professional Artists.  Why can't I?. is what I ask myself?      What can't you?   Find your true passion and follow your dreams.  Go for it... after all, what do you have to loose?

Sunny Days Painters Delight

I can not think of anything better, besides spending time with my family, than to be outside painting on a beautiful sunny day like today.  When painting on location you have so much information to decide what to and what not to include in the painting... But it is those details you get to have a choice... that you otherwise might not have from a photo. Please do not get me wrong, working from a photograph has it's advantages as well. However, I believe working outdoors while feeling the elements and smelling the smells, the painting takes on a whole different life of it's own than if you paint from a photo. It comes to life and you gain a greater and deeper appreciation for your chosen painting location. So go out and paint. What are you waiting for.  =)
