But I don't spend a lot of time worrying about whether my earlier phases were better or worse. They were the best I could do at the time, and I keep trying to meet the highest standards I can, while always experimenting with new things. I think you're right that art is similar to athletics, except that we're not as constrained by the physical limitations of a body, so it's possible (hopefully) for an artist to keep improving. Some of my art heroes did what I feel to be their best work toward the end of their lives.<br /><br />Newt, Yes, that's on the list, but I have a lot of other vids and other releases to do first.James Gurneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01870848001990898499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-9876038750104224402017-02-19T19:40:31.359-05:002017-02-19T19:40:31.359-05:00Wonderful painting!
