Begin With The End in Mind

Really?

What Artist Does That?

Best Selling author, Stephen Covey wrote

 7 Habits for Highly Effective People,

and I read it, 

studied it,

loved it

and try to practice it. 

However,

as an artist, sometimes we just don't know where we going with our art.

We start out thinking we're going this way and we end up going that way.  
We zig when we thought we would zag.

There's nothing wrong with that!
It's just hard to plan sometimes.

Sometimes I intend to paint flowers,
but I get in the studio and something else speaks to me, or I pick up the brush and I can't paint a flower to save my soul that day.

So I go to another subject.
This mostly cool background spoke to me
and said
"hey, how about painting grapes on me?"  

I wrote a post last week about photographing art

and just how frustrating it can be.

Like, lose your mind crazy.

Anyway . . 

I listened to the background below
and painted grapes hanging on the vine.

 We raise grapes, among other things

 here on JumbleBerry Farm and I thought

grapes would be the perfect complement on this.

Let me know in the comments what you think?
Can you still see the background I started out with?
