Greet's Middle Ages

Seth & Gwen's Coronation plans

So the word is, that they're dressing 1150 black and white, and they'd like
to see everyone else in black and white for their own period.

I don't have a period.  Nor do I have any black and white.

Still alive - here's the Black Death.

Hi all - sorry for the hiatus in posts.  I've put myself on a new schedule, am tremendously productive...but haven't been taking the time to blog.  However, I'm presently on vacay visiting family, so...

Here's a bit of Black Death to entertain you while I figure out what to do with myself.  Get thyself to In Our Time, and download the audio sometime this week, because when the new one's up, the last one's gone.

Hopefully it'll still be there when I get home to my laptop.

Painting advice

words of encourgagement from Robert Genn:

 

Feel and relish the environment.
Get into a "be here now" state of mind.
Start your work anywhere.
Look cleanly and with an uncluttered mind.
Be joyous and unencumbered in your stroke.
Work everywhere at once when you can.
Try to leave your strokes alone.
Do not labour or think too much.
Don't sweat the small stuff.
Let the painting tell you what it needs.
Though it may be small, make your picture big.
Without being a wimp, serve your subject.
Don't verbalize your sight--sense the being.
Surrender to earth's beauty and wisdom.
If you make errors, fix them in good humour.
Be suspicious of what you've been told, how you ought to do
things, and what you ought to think.
