Again, I will return to thanking each of you individually as I appreciate you taking the time to stop by, view my work and read my ramblings so much I can't put it into words. But for the immediate future I'll be stopping by your blogs to see what you've been doing as usual and thanking everyone as a group. Time isn't on my side here lately. Thank you again from the bottom of my angst-ridden little heart.suzanneberryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13702748663139114422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6358020892440594492.post-51743903544691575782010-07-16T20:19:21.292-07:002010-07-16T20:19:21.292-07:00Beautiful fluidity and very creative use of our th...Beautiful fluidity and very creative use of our theme's color choices!

I'm looking at all of those details in the lightest ripples- so so lovely.<br /><br />And as far as your words go... I can relate too easily.

So when I sat down to my easel to work on my little piece (and another I'm doing for a deadline) I felt like I'd forgotten how to paint!<br /><br />It's like anything (playing the piano, practicing the barre, running); it does come back but one feels out of shape if it's been awhile!<br /><br />I LOVE your choice of subject, Suzanne. On our trip (and also the last time we drove that way) I watched the yellow light play on the blue water when we were driving by the Columbia River and thought it would be interesting to try to paint it. I say "try" because I'm not sure I would get it right.<br /><br />But you have!Diana Moses Botkinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06254521493118166524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6358020892440594492.post-56918350971145064842010-07-16T08:55:54.667-07:002010-07-16T08:55:54.667-07:00I LOVE what you've chosen for this challenge, ...I LOVE what you've chosen for this challenge, it's beautiful Suzanne. I can't understand why all these artists I admire have the exact same feelings that I do about painting and the process. Strange don't you think? I have just realized (again, jeez why can't I remember this!) That I need to paint everyday too. <br /><br />Did I mention how much I love this Suzanne? Every single thing you paint is just plain beautiful and inspiring. Don't ever forget that :) Have a great weekend!Crystal Cookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06665844725894074136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6358020892440594492.post-88151392497531390072010-07-16T03:35:24.998-07:002010-07-16T03:35:24.998-07:00my trainer says "stay away from the potholes&...my trainer says "stay away from the potholes". and then he gives me a nugget. yum...salmon...Rick Nilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13528067939832551314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6358020892440594492.post-91184917447078916562010-07-16T03:00:12.903-07:002010-07-16T03:00:12.903-07:00I spend most of my time trying to climb out of tho...I spend most of my time trying to climb out of those potholes you mentioned, Suzanne. This piece is a bit different for you, I think. But it just has a fluidity (duh) and soothing sense to it. You know, so many artists paint to music. I think I am much too intense. I never listen to music much these days. It always makes me cry (at least the stuff I like, which happens to be oldies...)Autumn Leaveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04010044052621228719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6358020892440594492.post-25730313228077369612010-07-16T01:11:10.705-07:002010-07-16T01:11:10.705-07:00Nice piece, Suz.
