A touch of red can be a strong statement, yes?<br /><br />I really appreciate your comment about Ocean Meditation #1. I'm still feeling pretty new at encaustic. It's just so very different from painting!<br /><br />Yes, hope you can get by and visit the Inn!Melindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16793226305585541931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5418000363253871722.post-67002994535354467752011-09-29T12:23:54.997-07:002011-09-29T12:23:54.997-07:00Love that streak of red on top in your Glyph paint...Love that streak of red on top in your Glyph painting; and the Ocean Meditation promises to be a beautiful series: #1 is lovely.<br />Thanks for the recommendations too!laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11999450626008299190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5418000363253871722.post-39845746371356273012011-09-24T21:20:42.454-07:002011-09-24T21:20:42.454-07:00Thank you, Linny!

I have issues about the skill of tool working, reminds me of my stained glass commission work era, but I'm getting through it. Thank you!<br /><br />My glasses were made with the new Digital Lens Technology (I think that's what it's called). Mirabile dictu, I can see as if I were thirty-something again! I was blind, but now I see!<br /><br />I think October is going to be a great month! <br /><br />Virtual hugs to you and yours!Melindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16793226305585541931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5418000363253871722.post-9532264591414111282011-09-18T17:49:56.857-07:002011-09-18T17:49:56.857-07:00You're so right, Don. You've reminded me o...You're so right, Don. You've reminded me of Monet, who had trouble seeing in his later years. When I talked to the optometrist, I thought that Georgia had spent too much time in bright sunlight without sunglasses, but the doctor said, "Not so." <br /><br />Thank you for your kind words. You know, I refused to sell any work for a number years specifically because I didn't want to associate money with work. Art for me is primarily about the work. Selling a painting is icing on the cake, something I don't count on, but derive soul gratifying acknowledgement for a job well done. Either way, we work, right? And, we enjoy the ride--alone or with company (better with company...!) <br /><br />Glad you like the encaustic and painting! It's been fun working in another medium for a change.<br /><br />Virtual hugs to you.<br /><br />Wow. I did not know that about blogger viewer.

That is such a great boost, far exceeeding any money that might be involved. And the piece, Glyph Image, is lovely. As is Ocean meditation #1. I love those brightly colored blobs in the foreground!<br />By the way, the new blogger picture viewer is excellent. Shows off your work really well!Donald Diddamshttp://diddamsdigitalart.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
