Thank you for visiting... and for leaving such thoughtful andsensitive comments!<br />Learning is a life long jourrney.. one during which one meets special people who are selfless and willing to share their "light" with their fellow travellers. Making art is a special activity which awakens the mind to possibility!<br /><br />The 'yearning" that you estutely observe and describe in the actions of the decoy... so mimics the yearning most of us often experience for greener fields... or the skills of others we admire. Human nature I guess.<br /><br />Good painting!<br />Warmest regards,<br />Bruce<br /><br />Bruce Shermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13111784187521969252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3013724465609653382.post-72982762010721712962013-01-27T16:14:28.598-05:002013-01-27T16:14:28.598-05:00Eloquence providing "lift" to all reader...Eloquence providing "lift" to all readers who dare to believe, Bruce. Very well put, my friend. <br />It has been said that those who think they are "self taught" have actually learned from the shoulders of those who have gone before.<br />We only have to allow ourselves to be "awakened" to other folks' dreams.<br />Love your painting where even the decoy yearns to join the flock... as the stem appears to stretch from its vase toward the light of the sun.Dean H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02834470562550878971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3013724465609653382.post-18028155489620383372013-01-27T10:58:06.583-05:002013-01-27T10:58:06.583-05:00Dear Friend Sherry!...

Thank you for dropping by and for expressing your thoughts so truthfully and eloquently!<br /><br />Creating anything is always more about the sum total of the process rather than an actual state of perfecting ones skills. Improvement is a great motivator... and the gateway to achieving satisfaction and a truer sense of accomplishment.<br /><br />As a spectator... I see and acknowledge your growth... both artistically... and spiritually. Those two states must work in tandem for either to develop significantly.<br /><br />Keep painting and with further improvement you will begin to trust and believe in "Sherry"... as "I" do! "You"... and your art... and your sweet "voice"... really... matter!<br /><br />Good Painting!<br />Warmest regards,<br />Bruce<br />Bruce Shermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13111784187521969252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3013724465609653382.post-72517646545087311552013-01-27T09:10:57.401-05:002013-01-27T09:10:57.401-05:00Bruce, I always find your words encouraging and up...Bruce, I always find your words encouraging and uplifting and try to fit myself in their places. Some places I've been, some I hope to be but always I keep doing the art. It improves slowly but the promising word is present tense "improves." Thanks for your philosophy carrying me along the way.Autumn Leaveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04010044052621228719noreply@blogger.com
