One old personal email... just sharing.

mmijares:
Thank you Moises for sharing Ray's reply-email to you.

While reading it, I could hear Ray's voice as if I am listening to him right from my mp3 player, again.

I miss his regular replies to email.

Thank you everyone for your replies.

Dave. I am glad you still checking out the forum, as you have noticed, sometimes we go for a while but it seems that  sooner or later we always come back. I have received a lot in here since already more than a couple years. I really miss Ray.


Hi Extol.
In my time in San Diego I had the honor to hang out with Alex and Don (avatar: SDDiver), it was awesome to be able to talk your mind openly about this truths. Traveling is fine, I think you are so lucky to have found a wife :)


About my artwork, I just enjoy paiting once in a while. I know I could take it farther but I preffer reading and writing. Still, I don't plan to stop, even so I only do 3 good works on a year, I guess I could get better at it on a couple years. No hurry. (by the way, my favorite style of painting is realism).
Doing it for money, I don't even think about it, that would change so many things from my making process.   

Once a while a find sublime works of art online, it makes me feel so small on my abilities... but that's a good thing, it shows me how far could I go in 5 or 6 or 20 years from now.

hola moises.  i saw the picture you did for ray of his puppy cesar and it was awesome.  captured the little guy perfectly.  thank you for posting the email from ray.  i too could hear his voice speaking as i read the message.  i thought of you amigo while driving from tulum to cancun monday morning.  i saw the sign for puerto morelos and remembered that's where you lived.  that whole coastal area is magnificant.  God's creation is so magnified and beautiful there, despite the poor and suffering that is also part of the area.

again brother, thanks for posting and please continue to do so.

Moises - you will always be welcome wherever you go - I  know people who can sell your art - thinking if you wanted - but you are God's Art - bless you brother - now teach us some Mexican Spanish and wonderful recipes for life xxx

Claudia.
Now I am thinking that I should post that drawing I made for Ray. Probably I will. Next time you should stop by in 'puerto morelos', there are some good places to eat on down town. I remember I made a lot of things for that little house I had in there, I am glad that whoever is living there or is going to live there will benefit from that.



Hi Hayley.
Muchas Gracias por ser tan amable conmigo. Talvez todavia soy muy joven para dar recetas de vida.




If I would do my painting for monetary reasons, I think that this would happen to me:
-what was a hobby and a time to relax (away from bussines issues) would be no more.
-the motives of my artwork would change since I have to think about the audience I am focus on.
-I would not be able to do other things I care more about and surely I would be painting against time.
-It would be hard for me to put a fair prise on what I consider very personal works.
-I don't like naive art critics.
-Since I usually make postcard size prints of my paintings and like to give them to friends, I think selling them would probably take some meaning from what was meant to be only a gift.
