I love sundays.

I usually relax, read the paper, catch up on political news, phone up a friend or family member……..

Think about new art ideas…….

Anyway………I was reading through my sunday net emails and found one that mentioned the following older blog post from March 2010:

It’s about what it might actually take to be a successful blogger today.

Very interesting…….

Here are some interesting art quotes from various folks:

1-While working on one piece, another concept often emerges, and it is this constant, stimulating flow that causes my work to evolve. (B.J. Adams)

2-Passion is universal humanity. Without it religion, history, romance and art would be useless. (Honore de Balzac)

3-I paint for myself. I don’t know how to do anything else, anyway. Also I have to earn my living, and occupy myself. (Francis Bacon)

(Quotes from Robert Genn site: Painterskeys.com)

A little bit of a cool day in Chicago area.

Playing hooky from artwork today……

Doing house-cleaning instead.

OK……finished newest small mini-painting–entitled “Art Nouveau Flower #1″. Take a peek in my original art section.

Sitting here reading the sunday paper.

Saw that Old Masters Sculptor Alberto Giacometti’s sculpture entitled “Walking Man” recently sold for over $104 million. When I was a college student at the Art Institute of Chicago (back in the day , I loved walking over to see that sculpture.  It was one of my favorites there.
