Here's a funny one...
I painted the picture above from a favorite creek of mine outside of Oldenburg, Indiana. There's a fabulous stone bridge that a car occasionally crosses just a few feet from where I like to place my easel. On this particular afternoon, I could hear passersby talking from rolled-down windows as they sped overhead. "Hey, there's a painter down there," they'd say. And "Look at that! An artist" Even, "Hey Picasso!" I must've had a dozen remarks during the twenty minutes I spent painting the scene. When I was finished, I took a step back to appreciate what I'd just created while the sun disappeared through the woods. I can remember myself focusing hard on the moment and how beautiful it all was. It could've been the closing scene to a dramatic movie about nature and art and all of that hippie-dippie stuff. It was magic. And then...I heard the sound of tires slowly rolling above me...
"What's that hobo doing?"
