New painting's "Underpainting". December 6th, 2011. Acrylic on Canvas.
I started to paint again. And now, I cannot believe i have been away from my brushes and tubes for so long. I set-up a makeshift easel in the kitchen, by the window, a little corner of happiness.
Where this new painting will go might surprise you.
Sunday, I found joy in heading to my neighborhood’s art store to buy white paint. All my old little guys are there, sketchbooks, papers, paints…and now a new jewelry section! I bought some new clasps for my wire crochet pieces.
Will post progress updates.
Art is neither a profession or hobby. Art is a Way of being.
Frederick Franck
Painting isn’t an aesthetic operation; it’s a form of magic.
Pablo Picasso
Being an artist means : not numbering and counting, but ripening like a tree,
which doesn’t force its sap, and stands confidently in the storm of spring,
not afraid that afterward summer may not come.
Rainer Maria Rilke
I try to apply colors like words that shape poems,
like notes that shape music.
Joan Miro’

My favourite is another from Pablo Picasso, “The world today doesn’t make sense, so why should I paint pictures that do?”
