C.S.Scogins, Paint Stroke by Paint Stroke: Back at it again!

Hello to anyone who is following this blog and has read it over the years! Your comments and support have been appreciated and it is my hope that you will get something out of reading my thoughts and viewing the images I create. In the case your new to this blog what it's all about is living life in an artful and creative way.

If you've gotten any further than this post you might notice a rather large gap since my last post. As of this post I would like to state that this will be a more regular place for me to post my thoughts and observations as I will soon be officially retired from the work a day world and plan on spending my time and energy updating a small house I recently bought cash and making my own personal art that has nothing to do with my time teaching others how to push a little paint around, draw, print or sculpt. From this point forward, I suppose one could say it's going to be about me. With that being stated, I'm not sure exactly what that will look like and it may stray into areas I've never considered before. So, I'm not promising anything pretty and there may be some dead ends, stumbles and just flat failures. Some where I have heard that no one ever makes any progress or finds themselves by playing it safe and not taking risks. So if your up for the ride, come along and feel free to comment and if possible share your thoughts and encouragement.

As stated earlier, I will soon be a social security recipient and that plus any return I can get from my years of making art will pretty much be my source of keeping myself viable and hopefully relevant! My intent is to fill my days with making my art and finding out if there is really anything I'd like to share with the rest of the world. If per chance you see a piece of art I created and you think you might be interested in living with it, just let me know as pretty much anything you see here will be for sale and looking for a new home to add some color, passion and possibly humor too!

So here are some relatively recent works I'd like to share!
