And added bonus was his refreshing answers to your interview questions. It's taking me a long time to understand that painting is a constant processes of decision making and reevaluating your decisions each step of the way and the necessary bravery it takes to go back and rework some earlier decisions...and the final piece could never be as rich and vibrant as it becomes if you weren't brave enough to push forward. Jesse inspires me to keep pushing, be brave and to make meaning out what comes from the heart. :) Hope you had a great holiday!Jodi Ohlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17051065416287643076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7526011052298598356.post-16150130651191161442011-12-26T22:26:56.870-05:002011-12-26T22:26:56.870-05:00Hi, Seth!

The words: WHIMSICAL, REFRESHING, and INTUITIVE come to mind when viewing these pieces! I love, of course, the amazing use of color, here, and the crazy--often subtle-- connection/disconnection he has going on between figure and ground in many of these pieces. It's a delight to suddenly be made aware of an artist, with such amazing presence, of whom I knew nothing. Very much enjoyed the brief interview, as well. Anxious to investigate Reno's work, further. Thanks, Seth, for the intoduction!Roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05985968063880398033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7526011052298598356.post-68642380214897733472011-12-25T17:08:29.294-05:002011-12-25T17:08:29.294-05:00Seth, Merry Christmas!

Last week I had contacted Sam @Hacienda Mosiaco to sign up for Jesse's class, as I will be back in Mexico for the winter...thanks for reminding me to get my act and art supplies together! I also followed up with your post about freeArt and actually got them in the mail in time....fun break from all the crazy Holiday stuff. I received the sweetest email from the publisher of Cloth Paper Scissors asking me to submit something!! Just the kick in the behind I needed!! I want you to know how much I so appreciate all you do for those of us out here in blogland/facebook.

He reminds me a bit of Basquiat but I like Reno's work more.<br /><br />I've been to a number of shows of so-called "outsider" artists. I always come away with deeper appreciation for the sense of color and intuitive drive that impels these artists to bring what's inside out and alive on the canvas.<br /><br />I appreciated your interview with Reno and his honest, articulate response about the path he has created and where it is taking him. Particularly noteworthy is his statement that art is his "search for truth" and "meaningful engagement" to "create something alive with purpose." That is one of the best definitions of art-making I've read, and it seems clear that through his art Reno has arrived at enormous self-understanding. How many of us can say that?<br /><br />Great stuff, Seth!<br /><br />Merry Christmas.Maureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13290283101378474845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7526011052298598356.post-41948208534448737132011-12-25T07:25:57.786-05:002011-12-25T07:25:57.786-05:00seth, this post was the best christmas present you...seth, this post was the best christmas present you could give me! I have admired Jesse reno's work for some time and have said too many times oh, if I could relax enough to paint like that!if any of your readers are contemplating taking a class with him I would highly recommend going to the Hacienda in Mexico. it is wonderful, the town is interesting and the area where the classes are held is perfect. outdoors, big tables, running water 'blue skies but an awning where you work. food is good and the hostess very nice! we took a week long class there with lynne perrella and anne bagby which was at the top of the list of best things I've ever done!lylehttp://almostheavengifts.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
