We can be tough when we have to be. I know there are times we need to be soft too. <BR/><BR/>I like the fact that you mix your own colors. A true artist I do believe. Painting is not my talent, that was established in Art 101, but I do know how to appreciate the efforts and talent of others. It is the little things you say and do as well as the final product that make you the artist I know you are.Patsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14800220805290554359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5969775012135767870.post-12118278468549946932009-01-16T15:48:00.000-06:002009-01-16T15:48:00.000-06:00You know you are pretty special out here, too, rig...You know you are pretty special out here, too, right?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5969775012135767870.post-70917782835118748382009-01-16T13:35:00.000-06:002009-01-16T13:35:00.000-06:00A very beautifully written haiku.

On any given day you surpass us all. Loved the Haiku!<BR/><BR/>Now on mixing paints. I used to work as the sole printer for a family business. I quickly learned to mix the fundamental colors from charts to come up with a chosen shade. There was always such a delight of seeing the colors blend and take form before me. It's creativity at it's best.<BR/><BR/>I agree the slightest bit off can change the dynamics of any one color. I do believe if I painted I would find far more pleasure in mixing my own.

How about that pilot that brought that plane in on the Hudson River in NYC yesterday, and everyone got out alive? He is a man, and they said he walked through the plane twice to make sure no one was left behind. <BR/><BR/>When I worked, I always had lunch with a few women because they really talk about things. When I lunched with the men they talked about their lawn and last time they cut their grass. <BR/><BR/>Now a little suggestion on mixing colors. Yes, you can continue to mix all your colors from the 5 tubes you mentioned, BUT if you added 4 tubes, Raw Sienna, Burnt Sienna, Raw Umber and Burnt Umber, you would find that you can increase your range of colors that you can mix. You might even like to use an umber or a sienna for your underpainting. Think of it as words, the more words you can use the better you can express what you want to say.moneythoughtshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08462893426608294171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5969775012135767870.post-41113213632668901842009-01-16T06:37:00.000-06:002009-01-16T06:37:00.000-06:00Dude, your comments across the blogosphere are alw...Dude, your comments across the blogosphere are always heartfelt and a source of comfort.<BR/><BR/>You are amazing.<BR/><BR/>Looking forward to seeing your paintings and I love the new blog!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5969775012135767870.post-53037406015156593682009-01-16T05:28:00.000-06:002009-01-16T05:28:00.000-06:00Beautiful sentiment!Best of Luck with the framing!...Beautiful sentiment!<BR/>Best of Luck with the framing!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5969775012135767870.post-18813666637610748672009-01-16T03:41:00.000-06:002009-01-16T03:41:00.000-06:00yikes, you lost me there with the talk of the colo...yikes, you lost me there with the talk of the colours and mixing and stuff, but you know what you're doing, and that's gooooood.<BR/><BR/>your haiku is so good. so very very good. blogland has taught me a thing or two about the good in people, lemme tell ya...Shadowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05999801833389058410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5969775012135767870.post-67888714824217543452009-01-16T03:03:00.000-06:002009-01-16T03:03:00.000-06:00Very cool to make your own colors!
