They're just opinions

I am an eclectic mix of artist, maverick, kung fu sage, librarian, and old hippie - and my posting will be all over the board, guaranteed. You may agree or not - read or not - like me or not, it's your time.

Commision of . . .

I just left a meeting with a potential art patron and it may be one of my more difficult and ambiguous commisions. The person wants a "painting that is 3 or 4 feet by 4 or 5 feet - oils - no subject or anything - reds and yellows but he likes blues - no, it is for my friend for a housewarming gift - by next month - style? abstract, didn't I say that?"
whew.
Read my mind, will ya? And be quick and cheap while you're at it.
I do have summer school to pay for - but terms like hooker stray to mind. I need to think this one through.

How about something Rothko-esque?

Go visit Amy and look at her artwork. ;-)

Rothko or even Kandinski since the guy likes music, color and geometrics. Personally Rothko is far more calming to me but...

Take it if you want to do the painting. But don't sell your time if you don't want to do the work. You're too much of a creator to be a producer.

Also, ignore me entirely, at will. :)

(Hey, I've missed you, by the way.)
