No, I don't think so. I need to expand my range and have thought about it for a long time, but end up back in the same color families.

It's similar to me, if I choose my colors intuitiv I end up with more calm colors although I always love to see Keith very colorful images for example. And in meantime I know it's harder for me to handle several colors. There is practice missing.

I've had more time to pick up those tech words and fancy descriptions. Give yourself about 35 years and then see what you can do.

I was a hippie-type when I was young and the ideas don't go away just because of age. Some people let them go, but I never did. I still smoke the other tobacco sometimes, too.
I started smoking it back in 1969.

I'll make a friend named Jenny just so that I can have that conversation.

Molten gold & platinum, mixed with a bit of silver all thrown across a gorgeous graphite board. The mixture of the harsh & hard geometric shapes combined with the very soft seeming spirals makes for a very distince abstract. Nice work Kat, very nice hon

Did you ever see Blazing Saddles ? The part where Mel Brooks as the Governer was stamping papers left & right, bouncing his head from side to side & at the same time going " Work work work work work work ... all I do is work"

Me --> "fave fave fave fave fave fave fave ... all I do is fave"

Now isn't THAT just a visual ?!!!
