A "modern" symbol, rather than old and quaint.<BR/><BR/>We have some common interests, Elish. I look forward to reading you new art interpretation guide, too.<BR/><BR/>I do actualy create from an intuitive base, and then over the months I look back at why I may have done something this way or that way in my art. I guess I do look forward thinking, "I don't want to...(this or that)".Casey Klahnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08020906666248399435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5826049157205598760.post-15519275627137301502008-05-08T18:31:00.000-07:002008-05-08T18:31:00.000-07:00Wow, this was a real eye-opener.

This is a fascinating story and solid resource too, I read the article on the barns in its entirety and added it to my links page. I intend to browse other article in there.<BR/><BR/>Casey, I've got to admit that I love your analytical approach to painting. Many artists say they don't know exactly why they end up with the painting as it is, citing inspiration or some inner creative/artistic drive that leads them towards the final product. <BR/>This method has its merits, no doubt, but it's refreshing to see an artist who approaches his work analytically, and apparently without any reservations about it.<BR/><BR/>I don't think deliberate thinking can ruin inspiration.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5826049157205598760.post-60436233206838581822008-05-08T11:47:00.000-07:002008-05-08T11:47:00.000-07:00Thanks for reading, Deborah.Thanks for reading, Deborah.Casey Klahnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08020906666248399435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5826049157205598760.post-3893530857522511592008-05-07T21:22:00.000-07:002008-05-07T21:22:00.000-07:00Great post, Casey.Congratulations on the review an...Great post, Casey.Congratulations on the review and the book cover. I, too, live in a place where barns are very real and even still in use. I have resisted painting them except in 2 cases, both of which sold to someone in WA interestingly enough! But there is something about them- unvarnished, dignified in their simplicity.Deborah Parishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02242296435365350267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5826049157205598760.post-88172242598694754892008-05-06T20:25:00.000-07:002008-05-06T20:25:00.000-07:00Now I know who "Risha" is!

Sadly, that agricultural experience is dwindling, and many kids now aren't making memories with barns in them. I'm sure glad yours are. :DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
