In the course of looking at Monet's body of work, I came across a gallery lecture regarding his paintings that I found insightful for making art in general-- https://terraingallery.org/aestheti...t-does-art-answer-the-questions-of-our-lives/

Highly recommend a read if you've got the time.

I'm ready to send out the cards

Hi, I’m getting worried about my cards! Have they arrived yet?

 

[Dooda]

Not yet, but with the terrible storm we had starting Friday night, I haven't been able to get out of my house! It isn't that deep, but it is a solid sheet of ice. I left no footprints when I walked out to take this picture.

 

[Dooda]

KerensaC, I just got back from braving the skating rink of 6" of ice from my house to the main highway to go to the Post Office, but, unfortunately, your cards are held up in the storm. I will hold off on mailing out returns until yours are received since you have no control on Acts of God! I hope everyone is good with that.

 

[KerensaC]

Thank you so much, @Dooda!

 

[Dooda]

Alas, not joy at the Post Office today. Keeping fingers crossed for tomorrow!

 

[KerensaC]

One more day for them to arrive

 

[Dooda]

Fingers crossed.
