The Artist's Dream

This 'blog started just over one year ago, and I think some mighty fine images have been showcased during that span. But man and boy it's taken up a lot of time that I should've otherwise been working for a living.

I've still got tons of great material waiting to be processed and shared, but I'm going to slow down my posting schedule just a bit. There are so many sites showcasing so many great images that I'm sure you won't be inconvenienced a bit if I post every few days or so.

After I catch up on my deadlines, and get a little rest, I'll return to a daily schedule.

Below, John Anster Fitzgerald, for his own reasons, created an 1857 painting called The Artist's Dream. But it is symbolic for me, of unborn images that haunt and urge me to wake up and return to my painting.

    Good rest, and good work to you in the interim. Conation can be a cruel mistress at times. A good mistress, but cruel occasionally nonetheless.
