Finding Time

Finding Time

The secret to winning any game lies in not trying too hard.Tim Ferris This week I've been pushing my normal assumptions regarding time. I have swung from one extreme to another in different phases of my life. In college, I went through a period where I was getting about 3 hours of sleep to keep my grades high. That later came back to bite me. I … Read More »

On Losing

On Losing

Losing sets you up for winning. Losing makes you think in ways victory can't. You begin asking questions instead of feeling like you have the answers. Questions open up the doors to so many possibilities.Maria Sharapova, from Tribe of Mentors Meditation, 9x12 watercolor and ink This week I dove into (or rather, was thrown into) dealing with … Read More »

The Invisible Road

The Invisible Road

There is an invisible stretch of road that lies between the idea of our dreams and the finishing mark of achieving them. This pathway is entrenched with barriers and potholes that seem to increase in depth as we women get closer and closer to claiming the prize. These barriers are universal, and we feel them deeply, but they are not identical … Read More »

Daily Painting

For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. As good as last week was, this week was its opposite. In other words, it was a bit of a bust. I was able to get into the studio without much resistance, but I produced a lot of junk. Only two pieces of art will make it to my online shop- Wild Mountain Columbine Sinking What … Read More »

What if you could possibly fail?

March 15, 2019 by Tawna Leave a Comment

What if you could possibly fail?

"But what if you fly?" is the oft-repeated answer dashed across social media. Honestly, if I know anything about fate, chances are we'll get an outcome we didn't expect. Maybe it will be better than we imagined. Maybe not. As I have said, and as we all know deep in our hearts, there is no guarantee of success in creative realms. Not for … Read More »

Are you and I truly agents who act and seek to learn, or are we waiting to be acted upon and relying exclusively on other people to teach us?David A. Bednar It's week 8 of incorporating daily painting into my life. Resistance was relatively quiet. There was the occasional "this is crap" or "I don't have enough time" thoughts that seem to be … Read More »

I'm writing this post on a Monday instead of a Friday, which means week 6 of daily painting goes under the category Life Happens Thursday night Dave decided to list our old home on Zillow (I was sleeping). He's a night owl. I'm a morning person that can't function after ten. The plan was always to sell, but in my mind we weren't … Read More »

Daily Painting

Week 5 What matters to an active man is to do the right thing; whether the right thing comes to pass should not bother him. Goethe Letting go isn't easy for me. I love scheduled programs and persistence. I've always had the belief that everything can be better. While that may be true to a certain extent, daily painting is trying to show me … Read More »

Daily Painting: Week 1

"Resistance will tell you anything to keep you from doing your work. It will perjure, fabricate, falsify; deduce, bully, cajole. Resistance is protean. It will assume any form, if that's what it takes to deceive you. It will reason with you like a lawyer or jam a nine-millimeter in your face like a stickup man. Resistance has no conscience. It will … Read More »

Does the View Present a Worthy Motive?

Does the View Present a Worthy Motive?

Good Things Take Great Effort Scott Christensen is a small, quiet-spoken man who is one of the best landscape painters of our time. As I sat with three other people in his advanced painting workshop, we had to listen closely to hear every word he was saying. His style wasn't to ramble, however.  He got directly to his point. "That's what you … Read More »
