    Sounds great Titus! I really enjoy seeing changes in your work over the years. Taking risks, making whether subtle or bigger ones are exciting. This has been a very interesting year for myself likewise. I have learned quite a bit, mostly in how to deal with those who want to change my work and don’t have a clue. It really is important to have a firm foundation because I have found adaptability in certain areas to be very beneficial but also in other non negotiable areas of life, what we value is what keeps us moving forward and provides myself at least with joy despite whatever the circumstances might be at each moment. Happy weekend to all!!😊

    Yes, when I am painting in my space I feel like I am playing at being a creator like God. And God is watching and smiling, maybe even helping.

    I agree, I'd certainly enjoy an audio book of your interesting, introspective conversations out loud Titus. Keep making thoughtful and peaceful reflections on art while the world argues.

    Hi Titus. While I was listening to your video I have start to draw on my table. I had my headset on and when the portion of you video while you just paint I WAS IN YOUR STUDIO.. I was not looking at you but at my drawing, soory about that. But the must incredible thing happen, I was completely in your town. I could hear the sound that you made, the police siren, the birds and every little sound of the city while drawing. It was so special. I recommend every viewer to try that, but after looking at the entire video for sure .Please forgive me for my spelling mistake, as I am a French old man from Montreal I have an excuse. thank you for your Friday video. Bye

    I woke up this morning at 1:15 am and felt the pull to b in the studio. I couldn’t stop thinking about how great “the gift” is to be an artist! And for me, an aging artist at that. Aging is a gradual process of developing new aches and pains each day…but it’s such a gift to do so. Being an artist is the same for me…we struggle sometimes to say what we want to say in a painting but if we are quiet and passive, the “gift” comes to us in the most profound ways. It’s in the stillness we find ourselves and our own peace. Your video this morning was yet another great gift ❤. Thank you Titus! Keep up the good work…your videos are so very comforting!

    Thank you for sharing…Always interesting and inspiring… As for your book, haven’t you tried to sell it through Amazon?… I recently bought a book wrote by a german artist…no problems at all with delivery. I live in Italy but it happened to me to buy also from America or other non UE countries… delivery costs in these cases are higher and also customs duties are asked for but one always clearly knows in advance through Amazon platform… then decisions by potential buyers are easier

    Our field of view is rectangular, and rectangular images always look more natural than square images. That's why I generally dislike all square images. I think your first version is better. I don't care what's happening in the lower left corner, the total image just looks more natural.
