No Time to Lose!

Dining Room on the Garden, 1934-35, Pierre Bonnard

My creative friends, it is time to pick up your brushes (pen, musical instrument, camera, your tools that enable you to create) because there is no time to lose. Get out of your own way and get busy!
In his old age, Pierre Bonnard stated "I am just beginning to understand what it is to paint. A painter should have two lives: one in which to learn, and one in which to practice his art."

  1. Bonnard is like pure fuel; I'm so delighted to read that quote you found! It's the other painters coming after who can drink deep from the lifetime of his learning; I never have had enough of Bonnard…
