You might be wondering what to expect on this blog. The truth is I'm not quite sure what to expect myself. I felt inspired to start a blog after researching art materials, techniques, and anything associated with oil painting for the past year. In that time, I have found many artists I admire, not just for their talent, but also their willingness to share what they've learned throughout their journey. I have a lot of gratitude towards them for the progress I've made.
So, there's the inspiration for this blog; process and Art. You'll be sure to find enough of that.
But what else?
Well, I have to talk about the motivation for this Art. It's life. I feel very lucky that I have one. I get to experience it everyday, and can get pretty blown away by the surprises life brings. I only have one life to live, one day at a time. I'm going to love every moment. And that is Art. I'll use the quote, "Life is Art...Art is Life", I don't know who said that. But it's true.
Which leads me to the content of this Art blog. Again, it's my life, and everyone and everything in it. So between the paintings, you might find posts on music, vegetarianism, books, travel, biking, Taiwan, love...hmm, what else?...oh yeah, becoming a father!
