Phlisophcally speaking so true...in reality when I drop a freshly painted piece onto the carpeting, or the ground....not so philosophical....I might even curse..aarrrgh.
I tin relate. The life of an artist feels similar sheer misery when mishaps occur!
Ahhhh then true!!..Your story reminds me of the day when I left my finished 'pleinair' oil painting on the roof of my car and drove off without fifty-fifty a idea about it until much later..needless to say I never institute information technology!....a wonderful lesson in the non so buddhist idea of non-attachment.!
A Neighbor of mine wanted to run across paintings with boats or paintings with water so I brought them 23 watercolors. Some of the paintings were watercolors that were done in workshops I traveled to learn from world famous artists. Their dogs destroyed 13 of them. Ii paintings I didn't go back because they were so torn up. I have no idea how it happened but information technology did happen. When I went to pick them up I was shocked to see how many were destroyed and how these neighbors cared so piddling for other people's belongings. The only thing I could think of to say is I promise their dog didn't get ill because watercolor paints incorporate toxic substances. I have been devastated e'er since I picked upwards those paintings. And so cheers for this postal service information technology'southward something that I needed to see.
Thanks for making me laugh! The horse reminds me of my golden retriever puppy who wouldn't recall twice nigh chewing up a painting!���
Thanks for reading. I call back nosotros all accept a destroyed painting story! All we can do is attempt to save it, or start a new 1!
LOL - great stuff John! I feel adequately sure this drawing may accept been inspired past a personal feel of some kind! If so, I feel your hurting! Hang tough brother - as always, love the piece of work (the cartoons AND the paintings)! Best regards and Merry Christmas to yous and your family! John H
Once again you brand me grin. Nosotros like to recollect we are stoic and look at things considerately.... however, non so much. Happy Holidays!
A delightful cartoon. We've all had paintings destroyed and it's not easy to take it with expert grace. Merry Christmas to you and your family!
Howdy...your drawing today reminded me of something that happened to me a long time ago. I'd washed a watercolor of a horse, like a portrait. I left information technology while it was drying. When I came back, my doge had chewed the corner of it off. The title of the painting was -Whins by a Nose."� I took it my framer and friend just to show her"�and left it in that location. One of her customers came in, loved it, bought it and framed it. Information technology was then chosen, -Whins by a Olfactory organ, Chewed by a Domestic dog."� Manifestly, watercolor paper has some animal content that attracts other animals...
Sadly, some "ruined" paintings tin't be salvaged just sometimes we find artistic means to reconstruct a painting. Cute cartoon, though.
