I’m enjoying the applications for the iPhone that allow sketching – the transparencies in color are really amazing – and while the precision isn’t there yet – I like the effects I’m getting using a program called IDoodle2Lite

This “sketch” was nearly effortless for me to produce, yet I felt it was expressive of unique choices I’m making – in other words, it’s Art.

By the way, an in a curious way, I’ve beent thinking a lot about why I’m not painting much this summer – and came up with something that I call our “narritative voice” – and wrote a post about it at The Analytics Guru titled – Being Uncritically your own best friend.   I also wrote another post today on More on our own nariation which puts forward my philosophy the importance of storytelling to our own consciousness, first.

We decide, I believe, the meaning of the various things that happen to us and those around us, for own lives – and then I also cover, in the later post, how events can be painted by others – to be one way or the other – but how we need to make decisions on our lives based on a naritive that works for us.

And I tried that with painting  – which I talked about in the first post – how I portray, to myself, my own activity, or lack of it, this summer, is going to lead to how I want to talk about to others and what choices I actually have before me – in the future.
