			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>First of all, hello new Twitter followers! I&#8217;ve picked up close to a hundred of you since my last post. I really enjoy getting comments, either here, or on Twitter (If you&#8217;re not coming from Twitter, I&#8217;m <a href="http://twitter.com/cleff">@cleff</a>) and I&#8217;ll respond, though it may take me a day to get back to you. </p>
<p>It&#8217;s great to be able to talk to so many artists and people interested in art. The art community on Twitter is incredibly supportive, especially the <a href="http://twitter.com/#search?q=draw365">#draw365</a> crew. I&#8217;ve gotten great advice and read many thought-provoking ideas. I&#8217;ll mention some specific people who are inspirational in a future post, but if you&#8217;re reading this and you want to find some interesting people to follow, check out my Tweets on Fridays for #FollowFriday</p>
<p>I actually have half-written a 2009 wrap up, but didn&#8217;t complete it before the end of the year. I&#8217;m still going to post it even though it&#8217;ll be late because 2009 was my most significant year as an artist. So far. Hoping 2010 is even better. In the meantime, I&#8217;ll post out of order with some of what I&#8217;ve been doing.</p>
<p>For reasons I&#8217;ll explain in my 2009 post, I&#8217;m in the process of repainting my reflections series. I have to finish that up before I can move onto the next series that will make up my solo show at the <a href="http://amberellagallery.wordpress.com/">Amberella gallery</a>. </p>
<p>Here&#8217;s the latest, that I finished last night.<br />

</p>
<p>Also, I&#8217;ve started doing a drawing every day. (I tried this in &#8217;07 and &#8217;09, but it should last longer this time with all the Twitter support). Here&#8217;s the first 9 (I counted my painting as a 10th).<br />

<p>Hopefully I&#8217;ll have that 2009 post, and some information about three big projects for 2010 very soon.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Over the past couple of days when I could sneak in time, I worked on the sixth painting of the Reflections series, Rhythm. I struggled with this one as detailed in an earlier post, but I&#8217;m really liking it now. </p>
<p><img src='http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2637/4175051252_5243d39ff1.jpg' alt='rhythm6'/></p>
<p>I&#8217;m going to touch up the fingers a little and I think it&#8217;s done. </p>
<p>Then I&#8217;ll post a higher quality photo here. </p>
<p>In the meantime, let me know what you think of it, the colors, the pose, what pops in your head when you see it. I&#8217;d love to hear from you.</p>
