Okay, I said I’d not bring this up again, but you have to see this. Actually I’d seen it before, but a friend forwarded it with the title, “What happens when you’re forced to work past 70.” Could actually help my painting style, “loose” being a style with much a-a-a-traction. Check it out here.

- A random collection of thoughts and sketches, poems, prosems and sometimes psalms, art-related or not — though everything is — while this blank slate continues to fill, sun by sun, season by season, as the heart beats, the eyes see and the mind continues to wander, ponder, and generally wonder.

Good stuff. Moses didn’t get really going till 80! As you know, many artists are mainly known for their last period of works. Take care.

Your paintings would certainly get more and more abstract, Hyatt. Could be interesting!

Hyatt,
What a delightful “series”. Sally and I both turned 70 this year (a bit before you) and have enjoyed sharing your thoughts. Thanks for putting a little more joy in our lives. Truly the Lord is good and he has blessed you and Anne more than abundantly. It’s a blessing to know you.

LOL. Did you know Grandma Moses started in her 70’s? Whether your hands shake or not, you will continue to create wonderful works. Here’s to artistry success in 70’s and beyond!

Things are slow this morning at work so I got to enjoy this. Tried not to laugh out loud so my co workers don’t think I’m still on vacation.
