I watched a video recently (this morning) about making blog posts.  Well, I watched the first sixteen minutes and then my head began to loll about on my neck.  Not that there weren't good points to be gleaned in that time frame, but with any visual I have to be captivated by scenery first.   Watching "Dinner with Andre" without a storyline is just tough; for me at least.  So I had to weigh the use of my time vis-a-vis painting or watching the video.  Getting my paintbrush in my hand won out.  Perhaps the clear beautiful daylight streaming in the window was too much of a distraction.  I'll give the video another shot when it is dark outside and my eyes are tired from concentrating all day.  I'm sure anyone reading my blog/journal will appreciate the extra effort.  Right?  Following my own advice I have added a photo I took from downtown for your visual enjoyment of my blog/journal today.  If you know the building…you're probably from here.  Back to my brushes.
