I've spent about 6 to 8 hours going through decades of Art Mags. Looking through them and finding that half of them were gems and I have a big pile of discards.
Lots of styles of painting that attract me and many that repel. Some good information in some of the articles. Always liked to see work in progress telling me a story of how the artist got to where they wanted to go.
Nice to see some of the artists are still painting today. Sad to see the ones in the articles that have passed away. Some of those magazines are OLD. They did not have Dot.com addresses, there were no digital images in use yet. Old school mags with old school methods.
Next up on my agenda organizing all the books and mags so I can actually use them thoughtfully when I need to reference something I have a question about.
So much waiting to be tackled. This is my journal of new beginnings.
