The globe belongs to an open source, so I can't take the credit for it.<br /><br />Usually, when I have an open source image, I try to credit the creator.

We know different.<br /><br />Good words about passion. <br /><br />As far as my work, I am inventorying for studio visits and sales. As I evaluate what I've got, I am reminded about how there is a guy who comes in here, who looks a lot like Jack Nicholson, and he's wielding an ax. He destroys a number of my works, but then only the best ones make it to exhibit.<br /><br />Of course, that guy is me, being critical of my own work, and wanting to find out what is truly fine.Casey Klahnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08020906666248399435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5826049157205598760.post-7483774760097571992011-01-27T12:41:24.482-08:002011-01-27T12:41:24.482-08:00I don't know, Casey - your paintings always se...I don't know, Casey - your paintings always seem to me to have the look of being created without struggle - a quality I find consistent in the best art I see. <br /><br />I suppose that's one of the things we aim for as artists, isn't it, to make it appear as though the resultant piece was effortless, even when we know it was anything but...<br /><br />One must have absolute passion for their subject for it to appear effortless as well, I believe.Sonya Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01879889885162011649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5826049157205598760.post-78261378681326086982011-01-27T09:32:02.968-08:002011-01-27T09:32:02.968-08:00I wish I could demonstrate the same easy represent...I wish I could demonstrate the same easy representation that you do with your paintings, Sonya.
