All the books I have on composition (14 Easy Steps to Great Composition, Composition for Dummies, Create Composition Like the Masters and Composition, It's Not Just for Breakfast)) ALL of them mention the BIG L as a GOOD thing????<br /><br />Have they been pulling the wool over our eyes all this time??? Is there a conspiracy to keep the Big L going, so that only the few, initiated members of the secret society know NOT to use it????Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01799016923038189074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5682081471599286551.post-725401510394598222011-06-19T13:10:05.648-04:002011-06-19T13:10:05.648-04:00I will try to stay clear of the big L!

Went to the fridge for some water, and there was a bottle of Moxie!<br />Just like in the cartoons, I did a double take, and asked who had it.<br /> Jeff,(my friend in the studio)said it was his.<br />Well it cost me, but I had to try it!<br /><br />It was so cold I think it had ice crystals as I drank it. It was very refreshing!<br /><br />I began to tremble, them my hair grew out, and I had an erge to go outside and paint! After which I would light a cigar!<br />There is a coffee house in town that carries speacialty pops. <br />I now can get a refreshing Moxie in Minnesota.<br /><br />Happy Fathers Day Stape!billspaintingmnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18343383719352968590noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5682081471599286551.post-23028577436680355562011-06-19T10:44:10.044-04:002011-06-19T10:44:10.044-04:00Congratulations Marian !

I can tell you, Stapleton, that I have osmatically absorbed information from your blogs and workshops. I even picked up the brush once or twice. I ended up with two little paintings that I wasn't embarrassed to show. That is a first for my out door painting. <br /><br />Willek gets credit too 'cause he drags me out side kicking and screaming and he told me about you blog in the first place. I blame him. <br /><br />Too bad our little Dutch artist didn't have the same access to the same master.mariandioguardi.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16963944767715466681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5682081471599286551.post-79898255130965160452011-06-19T02:54:03.257-04:002011-06-19T02:54:03.257-04:00R.I.P.
