Today's post on Instagram about "non-motifs" seems to have struck a chord.
. Here are some of the responses:
ukesurferHow do you take such a Mundane looking place and make it look really cool? I need to train my eye better to respect the spaces that are right there in front of me. You Did a lovely job. Thank you I will review those tips every time I go to paint.!

artofmiggyI've been doing these 'boring scene' drawings for a while and am ALWAY shocked by how interesting they are in pen and ink... but of course,
@jamesgurneyart takes it to eleven with his rock-solid ability. Gorgeous stuff.

snowboundartstudiosQuestion for you, I usually work in oils, they allowing me to blend colors. Between Gouache and Casein which is easier to blend?
jamesgurneyart@snowboundartstudios The main difference in blending is that Gouache can be rewet and blended after it dries.
chrisfriendartIncredible, I wouldn’t have given a parking lot a second glance if you asked me to pick a place to paint but of course you show it can be as good as any 👏
renitawellmanI’m always amazed by the cool compositions of Highway, cars, and curves in my rearview mirror.
