About Jerry Wylie, artist
I may
be the only painter alive that knows what the true source of amber
varnish is, which I learned from the backward writings of leonardo
Da Vinci, using a mirrow, to reverse the print. But I do not use
it, though it is a very good material, for that is not the secret
of great painting. Learning
to see is the secret of painting if there is one. And it takes
years of practice to develop.
If you are a painter struggling with materials and technique,
I can answer your questions about oil painting. Send an email,
I will respond when I can. There are many books on this subject,
hundreds, none are as good as they could be. I do not have time
to write this much needed anthology. Once in a blue moon, I stray
from surrealism and I like to do traditional paintings to give
my brain a rest.

I
highly recommend you execute your trivial task on rainy days;
groceries, post office, hair appointments, etc. If you saw the
movie Dr.Zhivago, you know what I mean. However; staying in on
days with heavy snow, as in the movie, is also to be recommended
if at all possible. These statements are directed to painters
of pictures, but are good for others as well. If anyone has any
news as to what happened to Julie Christie, please email me ASAP.
