Thanks! Shapes and value are my new favor...Celeste! Thanks! Shapes and value are my new favorite words. Trying to avoid mud.<br /><br />Sam: while my kids played jazz through high school, my life was filled with the sounds of their practicing plus rehearsals with small groups here at our place. We got to hear lots of bands play at festivals and life was filled with music. It's different with them gone, but music touches me to my core. Glad you LOVE it, too!<br /><br />Thanks, Carrie! I am pleased with this piece. More miles to put on the brush, of course, but it's encouraging.

I feel the same way about "Sing, Sing, Sing." When it's right, it's alive! I'm leaving the vase piece as is, so I'd say it's as finished as I will make it.Katherine van Schoonhovenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16856296773149274225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1816170091944672081.post-31151365837829511812011-02-13T14:07:42.568-08:002011-02-13T14:07:42.568-08:00Hi Katherine,

Btw, you're building an admirable stash of oils.<br /><br />My parents were huge fans of Benny Goodman, so the music flows in my veins. My dad used to laugh at Gene Krupa's insanity. "He did drugs, ya know" he'd say. When you think about it, he was definitely the Ginger Baker of his day.SamArtDoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07322356829966791319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1816170091944672081.post-38868430746433652902011-02-13T01:01:03.434-08:002011-02-13T01:01:03.434-08:00You've done a really good job of this...I like...You've done a really good job of this...I like the strong darks.

When it comes on I feel like, "All Rise, Sing Sing Sing is in the building". Rhythm of all kinds (especially Latin)seems to go with painting as does just about all forms of music, at least to me. I've been sharing them too. That vase piece is strong. The background really adds power. Is it finished? Thanks for sharing the process.

Also...I love your new vase... what a show stopper.<br /><br />Also, I'm crazy for thumb-nails Loved your last post talking about them (love contour drawing too).<br /><br />I like that you showed your block in. I had a hard time understanding this, I think I'm understanding this better as time goes by. <br /><br />Congratulations on your 40th oil painting! You're doing great.Nancy Van Blaricomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17030893675129815727noreply@blogger.com
