Painting with my Feet


welcome to Miles Frode's 9th weekly, Tuesday Blog!

from Tuesday January the 13'th-2015
                                            to today! 
                             January the 20th

I am an ART Addict!!!!
and even when i can't use EITHER ARM
i need to make marks and dance with them…
and think about them and become attached to them and 
                               risk them and be surprised by them!

I feel a lot of artists,critics, art collectors and appreciators
often forget or severely downplay the idea of finding joy in the ACT of painting
and the ULTIMATE (in my opinion) importance of an artist to feel joy in the act/ART 
                                                    of painting and not just in having made something….
it's the classic "It's nice to have an end to the journey but in the end..it's the journey that counts"
situation.   

Being an Artist is the most important Human thing i feel i can do…
all of the possible decisions in life can be given over to the mark
 as well as our interactions and choices with other people. 



If you've known me over the last 4-5 years you may know that 
i have been dealing with CONSTANT pain in both arms/shoulders and neck.

These pictures are of Mixed Media Paintings i have been Soley painting with my feet.
                                            (Pun intended)










I can't do much on this blog…
but i am here! sharing!

Thank you for sharing, Commenting and Appreciating

As always,
"May The Muse Be With You!"
