"It's impossible to explain creativity.  It's like asking a bird, 'How do you fly?' You just do. - Eric Jerome Dickey.

Creativity springing forth from the human soul is both mysterious and tranquil.  It's a thing of beauty and as Eric Dickey says in his quote, it's impossible to explain.

Please enjoy these beautiful works by my wonderful students.

"Exaggerate the essential, leave the obvious vague." Van Gogh

Information overload is rampant today.  It's easy to lose the focus of a painting by adding too many areas of interest.  I learned early on from the most influential painter in my life, Bud Biggs, that when you drop a jewel in a painting, let it shine!  If you add too many jewels, they'll lose their impact!

Please enjoy these current and a few past works of art by my wonderful students.  To receive this blog, please add your email on the right side of this page.

Martin Glaser, a legendary New York graphic designer, famous for creating the ‘I Love New York’ logo, recently spoke about something that’s dear to my heart.  Martin said, “If you can sustain your interest in what you’re doing, you’re an extremely fortunate person.  What you see very frequently in people’s professional lives, and perhaps in their emotional life as well, is that they lose interest in the third act.  You sort of get tired, and indifferent, and sometimes, defensive and you kind of lose your capacity for astonishment, and that’s a great loss, because the world is a very astonishing place.”

Most of my students lead very busy lives, are professional businessmen and women, own businesses and some are taking care of large families.  I also stay very busy with my classes, painting, the business side of what I do, and daily life.  It takes effort to re-charge and refresh the creative side but it's vitally important.

I’m in the third act of my life and  I still find wonder in observing nature, seeing the cloud formations before a storm, and getting up early to watch the sunrise over the misty waters of the Chattahoochee River. 

I agree with Martin Glaser, the world is a very astonishing place and I hope you're able to take the necessary time to be utterly astonished too! - Jill Saur

"Creativity takes courage". - Henri Matisse

Henri Matisse is right, creativity does take courage.  It takes courage to step out of our comfort zone, putting our personal expressions on paper or canvas, stumbling for those right lines and brushstrokes that express our innermost selves.  Yet, the reward is profoundly life changing for those who persevere!

These photos are from my students archive.  I thought I'd start sharing some of those again.  I love looking back at the accomplishments of all my students.
