Recently I have been quoting Robert Henri on my blog and lo and behold I find that Michelle at http://followingthemasters.blogspot.com/
has already chosen it for a reading group she has started. I started this book just about the time I started my Art journey. It took about three years to complete the book. I would frequently pick it up, read some, then digest it. I finally completed it last month. In the process, I learned that as a newbie to art the message he had was under appreciated. As time went on, I found his message resonate deeper in my soul. I fully intend to keep this book at my side and reread it when I seem to hit a dry spell. If you haven't read it, I would recommend you take up Michelle's challenge. If you have read it years ago, it may be rewarding to reread it. I think the more knowledge you have about art, the more meaningful it becomes.
I am so grateful for all the books that are availalbe today. They help us on our journey. The local library has been an invaluable resource for me. It helps to be in a local community that has a strong arts awareness and appreciation. I am posting the picture I mentioned yesterday that I had revisited and redone. I think it improved the composition.
