I completel...I second the props on this post Jhina.<br />I completely agree with you. As artists, we thrive on our interaction with other artists and obviously more so when it's constructive rather than superficial. I don't know what I would do without the inspiration and critique from my peers. (including yourself of course,...just wish it was in person more!) Its essential to have a creative community and conversation on a consistent basis but "colonies"? ... meh...not so much. ;) <br />With that said, I think solitude is absolutely necessary to an artist on many levels. Plus, a fat piece of medium/rare skirt steak with a little lime and hot sauce does wonders for my work! (personally) And pork is pretty good too. ;-)Robin Luciano Beatyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05025581424780201193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6228123511231196811.post-13234280691022662622010-03-16T08:23:00.691-07:002010-03-16T08:23:00.691-07:00Raymond- Thanks and yes, use the quote!Group space...Raymond- Thanks and yes, use the quote!Group spaces are great when it comes time for open studios but can be a problem when you really just want to get work done. Everyone is really nice and social which can be distracting sometimes, especially if you're on a deadline.<br /><br />Hylla- ...and this is why I love you!Jhina Alvaradohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14908495820167802924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6228123511231196811.post-12485065044913923052010-03-16T00:29:37.388-07:002010-03-16T00:29:37.388-07:00I am totally flattered to be asked but mostly hono...I am totally flattered to be asked but mostly honored that I get to see the works as they near finish.

I do like the isolation as an artist, but do wish at times to have input from other fellow artists too! I am lucky at the moment to have a new artist at my very intimate 3 person studio that actually shows up and we have exchanged some good dialog with her. there was a time where I wanted to be in a group space and may be some day, but I think is more for being inspired by others working and for hopefully more visibility during open studio type events. well in summing up...I see u and am with you. <br />raymond<br />http://raymonddifley.com/blogsf art dadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06829113083722758091noreply@blogger.com
