Thank you for your bracing words! If my ...Stickup,<br />Thank you for your bracing words! If my art and my blog have provided you with some inspiration and enjoyment, I'm really very pleased. One of the questions that inevitably comes back every so often, as an artist, is "what's the point?" Well, the point is to reach kindred spirits, such as yourself; to touch others in some unique way; to communicate something of myself and my view of life. Knowing that there are sensitive eyes/souls out there who can respond to these images is my reward. Thank you for reminding me, and encouraging me to continue on with paint and pixels...and humour.Lynne with an ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00320166770541319601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3691575624480469934.post-89005454706661198232010-12-09T05:49:15.538-04:002010-12-09T05:49:15.538-04:00That last one is particularly atmospheric.

Klink. Seriously sober, I'm nuts over that porch image framed by the colorful foliage. Now I'll toss in my 2 cents... Personally, I avoid self-judgement or analysis unless what I do is causing me or someone else discomfort. Other than that, if I'm enjoying myself and occasionally amaze myself, it's all good. If you can wake up every day and find and create beauty in this puzzling chaotic universe, you are a brave warrior. I've seen way too many good people cave in and drink/drug themselves to death. It's easier than you might think. The creative addiction is the only one worth having! And what I've seen of your creative output is so not so-so. I've benefitted greatly from your art blog (I wish I was as deeply connected to my inner self) and your comments on my blog. You have brought me great joy many times. Thank you for brightening my own little corner of the world!Stickup Artisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00028394186285973772noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3691575624480469934.post-20291905620631067372010-12-08T01:06:26.577-04:002010-12-08T01:06:26.577-04:00Owen,

I'm sure that with all the time our BrOwen is putting in at the straight jacket factory he must be earning gazillions of euros and will be more than happy to charter a private jet to fly you both to my little corner of the world to meet the nicest sister you have never laid eyes on. I do like your take on blogs as drop-ins on friends and neighbours for a little chat, a cuppa tea, a glass of wine together. Not something I have much opportunity to do in the real "my little corner of the world." I must admit, I'd forgotten all about that tune and had to look it up on You Tube. I had to laugh when Anita Bryant began to sing it. Yes, it all came flooding back. <br /><br />I think Mr. Toad (or King Toad as he's recently hinted at being)might be dehydrating, he's been holding his breath so long. Maybe we should give him a glass of wine, or pour it over him...not sure which.

Five years is an impressive amount of time to put into blogging, but the result--a simply gorgeous blog with many devotees, myself included--does seem well worth the effort. I think it has inspired you on to ever greater feats of photography, and a very focused (pardon the pun) way of viewing your surroundings. I'm encouraged by the tale of your blog experience, and your kind words here.
