This painting is the largest painting I've done in 15 years and the third ever largest I've ever done, but it's only a 12x12" 😁 I have experience with mostly tiny paintings. It's very personal to me and my second favorite of mine, after 'Forget Me Not, Sincerely Homeland'. The little 8x10 creation, one post before this.

Ever been told it’s “too late” to start over?
well I heard that too. Then I ignored it.
3 years later, my apps earn real revenue — and I love what I do.
Start small. Stay consistent. Bet on yourself. 💪

Chặng đường trở thành người xây dựng của tôi: từ 40 tuổi, thất nghiệp, đến việc tạo ra các công cụ nhỏ như Copi, Clip, Tizo, Pomo, Foca. Không phải mọi thứ đều thành công, nhưng mỗi bước tiến là một bài học. Nếu bạn nghĩ mình "quá trễ để bắt đầu" — hãy cứ đi tiếp. Thành công không chỉ là doanh thu hay viral, mà còn là sự kiên trì và hiện diện. #BuilderJourney #NoCode #SideProjects #LàmĐược #KiênTrì #SelfTaught #ProductivityTools

"Country Doctor (Night Call)," Horace Pippin, 1935.

I've talked about Pippin (1888-1946) before; he was a self-taught Black American artist who took up art as a sort of therapy after being injured in WWI. He painted scenes of everyday Black American life, and what he lacked in formal training, he made up for with passion, depth, a remarkable eye for design, and a flair for storytelling and depicting people's lives.

Here we have a scene in a wooded area in the midst of a snowstorm....but a man is slowly leading a horse, pulling a wagon, through the storm. It's not just a mere depiction of a winter scene, but a tribute to the resilience and dedication of a rural doctor, trudging through the storm to someone in need.

Pippin's most popular work are his depictions of Black life, many drawn from his childhood. He also did religious paintings and some historical paintings, mostly of his WWI experiences, but also a noted depiction of John Brown going to his execution, based on descriptions from his grandmother, who witnessed it. I find his work delightful.

From the Museum of Fine Arts Boston.
