Have you ever wanted to visit somewhere in the world and have this picture in your head of how it would be like? The colors, the smells, the sensations, the wind, the heat, the shape of the clouds, how the leaves follow their destination. Well, this painting here is that image I have of Ireland with the sheep and farm life - and I AM going there :) Whatever is in your head. Paint it. Know the importance of imagination as Einstein did.
Steve Jobs once said (and I paraphrase): "people live their life thinking that this is it, that this is reality and we have to play within the lines. Have a nice family, get a good job, save a little money, and so forth. It is a very limited view. But for me, everything around you that is made up in life is made by people no smarter than you. And you can change it. You can influence it. You can build your own things that other people can use..."
So, to wrap it all up, I have created my own things that delight me and have thought into creation. Think of Disney, it all started with a mouse! Was there an actual mouse in red overalls hanging around him? No. There was only an idea. Imagination. See how far it can take you...hold on for the ride. ENJOY!
We would love for you to send in your pics of your art based on this concept. Who knows, we may feature it on our blog! Include a little write up as well ;) ~ Thx to all those who send in their pics! Nicky and Pam
