Simplicity is the removal of the useless and the unnecessary--source unknown

When I first started painting, my Parisian aunt was very happy because she loved art. One of the first things I sketched was a copy of a Don Quixote sketch by Picasso that hung in her living room. She liked it and encouraged me; one thing she drilled into me was to go outside the lines, to loosen my grip. It took some practice, and it's probably the best lesson I learned.

In sewing as well as painting-I find it so hard to unlearn the school lessons of staying in the lines and having even stitches!
ReplyDeletePS I am very proud of my French ancestry! :)
Love your cat!
Loosen the grip. Such good advice
ReplyDeleteLove you CoCo.
I'm a cat person, so I love this. What a coincidence, you have a French aunt too : )
ReplyDeleteI am a dog and cat person...and becoming quite attached to your art!!! Your lovely tags are hanging very gracefully along the top of the south window like a valance in my new art room.
ReplyDeleteThis cat is the cat's meow! Fabulous!!!
