MORE  PEOPLE  CAME  TO ART  ROOM TODAY. WAS  NICE  TO HELP PEOPLE AND  GET  FEEDBACK ON  MY OWN PAINITNGS.

I TRIED TO DO A  TREE THAT  CAUGHT  MY FANCY IN CANADA.  I FELT THAT  I HAD  NOT  PLANNED  ADEQUATELY...FAILURE  TO PLAN IS  PLANNING TO FAIL..I THOUGHT  THAT  WAS A  QUOTE  FROM TONY VAN HASSELT..AND  THEN I HEARD   IT  ATTRIBUTED  TO THE   GREAT  BASKETBALL COACH  JOHN WOODEN. IT   APPLIES  SO WELL TO PAINTING AND PLANNING  A  PAINTING.

I ALSO PAINTED WITH PALETTE  KNIFE  THIS  WEEK.I  BOUGHT  FRAMES  AND  NEED TO FINISH  ANUMBER  OF  PAINITNGS  I BECAME  DISCOURAGED  ABOUT. IN THAT  , I KNEW  I DID NOT  HAVE  FRAMES  FOR  THEM.. I LOST  INTEREST  IN  COMPLETING  MANY PAINTS  DUE TO NOT  REALLY HAVING  FRAME  FOR THEM.

IT  HAS  BEEN MY GOAL  FROM NEWYEARS.. TO COMPLETE  PAINTINGS. IN STEAD OF  WATING  SO MUCH EQUIPMENT.
