MadameJanet's Profile

How beautiful! And your discussion about getting the right green for the leaves was fascinating. It also made me laugh. Great artists (of all disciplines) have 1,000 considerations, never satisfied, as they perform their craft. Meanwhile, their admirers are utterly stunned by the artistry of the result.

Whitney Houston's funeral is on the TV right now, and Kevin Costner was just speaking about her performance in "The Bodyguard," and how insecure she was (in the most touching way) about her make-up and looks. Whitney Houston, as gorgeous as she was? Same as your leaves, Mr. Chamberlain: you evoke leaves with a few cunning, brilliant brush strokes, a fine artist, and yet, there are 1,000 nerve-wracking, I'm-not-satified, underlying considerations. Haha, you are a true artist.

Ok, who was Josef Albers? (American? European? When? Teach me!)

I love your explanation of "contextual," best I ever read. You're an elegant writer, Mr. Chamberlain.

Wow. Utterly glorious. I'm ready to move to France!

Mark, your commentary is very exciting. It gives us what the artist was thinking in his mind. I read this in the morning, and it inspired me with new energy for the day. Thank you!
