And, I was heartened to hear him say that when he painted his paintings he felt nervous about them, nervous about how they would be received. Now, as a grand master, it is good to hear that he doesn't feel nervous any more. I enjoyed every one of these videos. Thanks for posting them.

It was so interesting to see him go from very representational to very abstract and then something in between. In addition, I liked how he went from a very active composition to a very simple one. I think these issues a lot myself.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5826049157205598760.post-7306181676609831692011-02-28T10:13:43.457-08:002011-02-28T10:13:43.457-08:00Steve - welcome.Steve - welcome.Casey Klahnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08020906666248399435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5826049157205598760.post-34923459386115568502011-02-28T10:09:12.321-08:002011-02-28T10:09:12.321-08:00Thanks.Thanks.Steve Moenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04626037380655129181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5826049157205598760.post-62365614955975798432011-02-28T10:04:51.063-08:002011-02-28T10:04:51.063-08:00Sam - he's a seriously good influence on our a...Sam - he's a seriously good influence on our art.Casey Klahnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08020906666248399435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5826049157205598760.post-13140304445411121652011-02-28T09:58:04.737-08:002011-02-28T09:58:04.737-08:00Wow, thanks!
