I've admired Vladimir's work for years.

His process "feels" especially natural to me.

I can see where he's going with his decisions or how the painting ended up the way it did. It's like understanding a language of sorts.

Incorporating aspects of his technique into my work (as much as I am capable of) will be a fun evolution.

Warming up with a watercolor sketch of my daughter modeling her Anne Bolyen costume she created and shot in France while visiting inlaws.

WHO HAS TIME TO WAIT FOR THE SUN?!!! 🤣

I saw this quote posted recently, which seems relevant to most of my mornings....maybe yours too?

Mine are often started with my digital feet running before they hit the ground.

More accurately my thumbs hitting the phone keyboard...

It's barely 5am here and I haven't turned the lights on yet but I do hafta peeeee...so it's gonna happen soooon.

"What-had-happened-was"... I've had a text conversation with a client on accessing her Canva account with the pw I gave her which doesn't work for her but does for me...and an email reply to update a different client on website platform migration issues I ran into this weekend 😆

Like I said, my thumbs start running for that gazelle before they ever hit the ground or have coffee 🦁

I love my clients, even the ones that hate me 😆 ...but I'm going to thoroughly enjoy fewer marketing accounts and more art work in my life.

That's not a complaint.

I love my life however it is when I wake up at whatever hour.

It's all good as long as I can still wake up, right? 🤙😝



PS - Pictorum where the image is from looks interesting. Similiar to what I'd like to build or partner with. Check them out....

I feel like stories like this enrich my life with uncommon knowledge from experiences I may never otherwise know.

A college student came upon an ancient manuscript leaf for $75. It turned out to be from the Beauvais Missal, which he'd studied in class.

Now this is inspiring. I wonder what licensing is involved?

This is interesting. Pouring has become the tie dying of our era and resin is the platnium of mediums.

The process is the journey in experiencing art.

Wow...

Another spin on seeing what is there a little bit differently.

I used to decorate cakes when my kids were young...and it was a fun outlet for creativity. Fortunately there are no photos of those cakes because by today's standards they would seem terribly lame.

But I wonder what I would have created if the internet was available back then?

Social networks raise the bar for so many things simply by making us aware of what is possible. We as humans benefit from a boundless wealth of an exponentially growing culture, beyond restrictions.

The good that comes from social media far outweighs the "bad" that those without constraints or common sense profess need to be governed.

I hope this next generation realizes the pace of their learning is greater than any generation before them....and as in this example of artistry ...can be a beautifully inspiring journey.
