What are your 100 things?

Again, thanks so much for another thoughtful post. It revolves in my head like a kaleidoscope while I paint. Or cook. Or do laundry. Or walk the dog. Or shower. It's rocket fuel.
And these are only my 100, Sam. I wonder what you would choose?
Great idea. I will do mine 100. And will very much repeat your list. And add "freedom" for sure.
The most interesting part to fill the list without thinking
Freedom! Fantastic, Irina - I look forward to reading your list.
Hi Casey. Thanks for following my arts blog. I appreciate it and absolutely love your work. I also was wondering if you would like to participate in a questionnaire for a feature on 2 websites Im involved in (including my blog). It would only take a few minutes and you could discuss your work. Also, I will definitely complete this exercise and post what I come up with. take care.
Wow, nice painting!! So abstract. Love it.
Glad Rothko made your list. :)
Thank you on the painting, Jala! It is right across the road out my studio window, and done last winter (snowless!)
MR made the cut easily. It was actually the ones who didn't that are cause for curiosity, as well as other things.
That;s what makes this exercise so fun - the edit.
Hi, Antonio! Yes, send the questions anytime.
I love how much and how many things you "love"! How many people can honestly pick 100 things that they LOVE about anything? Not just like better than something else, but love! We all need to think that way!
Good thoughts, Sally.
Hi Casey,
I love your list, but alas, I am not too keen on more editing. ;-)
thanks for your work on it!
I appreciate that you read my blog at all, Kelly!
101. Casey Klahn!
Very sweet, Kathy! Right back atchya!
I hope Maine is treating you well.
I love this painting - the angular lines, the yellow, and the bright color in select places - the whole feel of it.
Great post. In reviewing your 100 I learned of some pastel artists I did not know, and got to peruse your excellent Artist Traits series!
Thanks for reading, and the compliments, Dan.
I hope to add to the artist's traits series after Labor Day.
That's quite a list Casey! How did you limit it to 100?
I have to admit staying on topic, within a range of ideas, was the difficult part, Loriann. I wanted to avoid "schools" or styles, too many artists, and trite or trivial things (as much as possible).
My first 100 paintings. The ones that taught me the most. :)
Way to go, Lynne!
