When you are painting on canvas with acrylic paint, and it want it to dry really fast, and Mummy is trying to get out of the carpark within the 10mins grace period, a hairdryer comes in handy.
This is my art piece on the 3rd day at My Art Pod based on what I learnt about Georgia O'Keeffe. She was an American artist who specialises in flowers.
Nobody sees a flower, really, it is so small. We haven't time - and to see takes time like to have a friend takes time. If I could paint the flower exactly as I see it no one would see what I see because I would paint it small like the flower is small. So I said to myself - I'll paint what I see - what the flower is to me but I'll paint it big and they will be surprised into taking time to look at it - I will make even busy New Yorkers take time to see what I see of flowers. ...Well, I made you take time to look at what I saw and when you took time to really notice my flower you hung all your own associations with flowers on my flower and you write about my flower as if I think and see what you think and see of the flower - and I don't.
