random observations, thoughts on life, humorous stories....from the studio while I paint.

I love to include water in all my paintings-most from imagination. Tracey Chapman is on now. Getting back to painting is something I imagine is like writers block -you really need to have want to do it.-acrylic or oils??

oh man...that's awful. thanks for the compliments! I love Dido! That's neat about the water and sky together...it took me a long time to get that right. and then one day i stopped looking at the outside world, like the sky, water...in 3 dimensions...i looked at it 2 dimensionally and then began to see it come together ...it just clicked.Posted 03/08/2010 at 12:29 AM by superkat -

Ya gotta tell the ones you love that you love them-too many times this goes undone.
Then jump out of a plane-never had the guts to do it but in this situation...

new on the easel

That is a great song! I love that song. I like what you said about never giving up. That is a big deal. A lot of people will give up...and I think that leads to death...maybe not physical death all the time, but death of your spirit...your dreams...Posted 03/03/2010 at 11:30 AM by superkat -
what if.......
IDK, thats a hard question. sure there are alot of things i would change, but if did would i be where i am now? would i have the ppl in my life i have now? wife kids... or would everything be different or worse? looking back theres alot i would change but not if it meant sacrificing my family. I dont think i would treat ppl differently i think i do a great job now. I laugh alot anyway i dont think i can laugh any more im a joker. definatly i would cry less!! there would be alot of questions i would have for the dr. but i would never give up even if he said there is no chance for survival. Just listen to the tim magraw song: live like you were dying !Posted 03/03/2010 at 11:21 AM by mynock11 -

more updates...
listening to a little Evanescence tonight..."I'm so tired of being here, suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave, I wish that you would just leave
Your presence still lingers here and it won't leave me alone"Posted 03/02/2010 at 11:57 PM by superkat -

acrylic, mixed medium...i use real sand from Durand Beach mixed in with the paint. i have four "favorite" brushes and my fingertips for getting the look i want. water droplets are actually tiny specks of polyurathene. i get lost in this stuff!Posted 02/27/2010 at 10:18 PM by superkat -

Welcome
from one non practising artist to another practising artist-I like your paintings-especially the waterfall based ones-good luck w/ the tank and scripts-alphaPosted 02/27/2010 at 06:30 AM by alphaferret -

it's amazing where you can go when you paint...my mind drifts off in a million different directions...sometimes i am not even aware that i am painting...i think of moments in my life that were truly peaceful...and sink into the fabric of that comfortable blanket....tonight i could hear the waves splashing up against the rock..feel the mist on my face...the taste of salt....and dream of happier times...in the past...in the present...in the years to come.Posted 02/27/2010 at 05:00 AM by superkat -
