So I have this friend. He's talented. Very talented. His ability to draw, to sketch, to paint, just blows me away.
Yet like most of us, he has a busy home life. Kids. Responsibilties. The day job.
But he's still pursuing his passion. To that end, he recently began a new blog focused not only on his art, but on the creative process itself.
If you get a chance, stop by RandyMadeIt. Check out his incredible pictures of Louis Armstrong that he painted on wood - yes, wood! Take a look at the sock monkey pictures on the Illustrations page. And read about this wonderfully creative, talented guy in one of the best "About Me" pages I've ever run across.
I always get a little giddy when I see fellow artists following their passions, and have to spread the word.
Are you following your passions?
