Robert Genn Twice Weekly Newsletter

Pin It To my artist friends or collectors interested in the daily life of an artist, I am passing on this link to  
Robert Genn's Twice Weekly Newsletter.
I have found most of the articles to be inspiring but mostly have found that I am not alone in my thoughts, concerns, fears, trials, successes in the art world as a business or lively hood!
It is geared to all "creative people"; artists, photographers, sculptors, collectors, etc.... 
Today's article hits home to many different types of people. Even someone in their mid life, later life reinvention of them selves,  "fear" can keep you from succeeding.  Many are procrastinators in doing what they want in life. What's the Nike motto?  Just do it! 
Well, if you want, take a peak at today's letter and if you want, you can subscribe to the Twice Weekly Letters.  Also take a look at his website, if you creative folks out there aren't familiar with it. Lots of good stuff there!!!

A QUESTION OF COLOR
By Michael Bettencourt
Directed by David Hallatt
In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, many states in the south had laws making miscegenation (interracial marriage) a crime. A Question of Color is the story of a white man and a black woman defying this prohibition and  their struggle as they live under the shadow cast by color and prejudice in early 20th century North Carolina.

Kayaking with Maya and Bella

Pin It
A little fun and excitement on the water! We took the dogs out for a relaxing ride and Maya was quite content to sit still but Bella had to chase after the crab pot buoys! 
And in the water she went!

And THAT is why we wear a life jacket!
