Art Every Day Month – Day 18

What the Rushing River Sees / 8″ x 10″ acrylic on canvas board

The arts are not a way to make a living. They are a very human way of making life more bearable. Practicing an art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow, for heaven’s sake. Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possible can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something.

-Kurt Vonnegut

    I love the energy and motion in your painting. And the colors too.
