"Cherish your own emotions and never undervalue them." -- Robert Henri


It wasn't warm, about 50 degrees this morning. There were many surfers at the beach already. Some of them were not young, still so brave. I really admire them all.

Light is the source of the reality, can change the way you look at everything. Later the sun came out, felt warm, but my painting didn't look right any more... It was the challenging part of painting out.

I've learned for years that creating a good piece of art, artist should respect one's own emotion first. What do you think?
