Ambition


Today, I painted this little ceramic turtle.
I just visited my uncle mel's studio and
I think that's why I put a little more color
in this painting. I also was a little looser and used
more broken color passages than normal. I'm trying to
break out of my box. Emerson said " Without ambition
one starts nothing. Without work one finishes nothing.
The prize will not be sent to you. You have to win it."
I like that saying. I hope to win it!

Hi Bud,

I forget to look at this blog (and others) unless I get some kind of reminder, but the turtle is cool. Nice job.
