Okay, so I've been a bit quiet on the journal front and frankly been dead silent on the art front. *sigh* I've really haven't don't much painting this year. I think I did only 2 or 3. I think I may have mentioned my artist block in my previous journal, and as of this journal I'm still on (or under) the block. Right now, I have a bit of direction, but zero inspiration, motivation, or passion. Which is a deadly combination to have as an artist. I wouldn't say I'm at an artistic low point. I'm just searching, I guess. Ironically, it's only my oil painting that is suffering. My graphic design and web design is not hurt by this art block. Which is a good thing considering that puts a roof over my family's head. :-] Unfortunately that means that I'm not sure when a new oil painting will be up in my gallery. :-[

After being a DA subscriber for 4-5 years I didn't renew; so now I'm back to being a free user for kicks and grins. I think I'm going to give being a free user here a whirl for a bit just cause. Though, I'm still a beta tester...not sure how that works.

Enough of this pity party, I'm looking for inspiration! Those that have made it and actually read this article, who are your favorite artists and why? They can be DA artists, but not exclusively and I would like to know why you like them. What is it about their work that speaks to you?
