I was on the Creative Juice podcast that was just aired this week on
Practice and how long it takes to be good at something. We talk about
drawing and obsessions and unused talents.
It was a lot of fun! Listen here: http://thejuicecast.com/practice-practice-practice-part-1/
While you are on the site, check out some of their other topics. The Juice Cast is a podcast for creative entrepreneurs.

Happy Easter! Bunnies and Painted Monasteries
![]() |
Cherry blossoms and bunnies... 'Tis the season |
Speaking of which, this is a good time to post some of the amazing art at the pained Monasteries in Romania.
Not only are there the ones dating back to the 1400s, but they are building new ones! Such a fascinating art form. It was nice to see the artist credits on the new ones.
Growing up catholic, it is interesting to see parallel but different imagery.

All of the Judgement Day paintings have the people being 'reconstituted', even if devoured by wild beasts. Such delightful imagery! |
