All of us are here, no matter what you make. There are people ahead of us, and always (regardless of when we begin), people behind us. We simply gain knowledge the further we go. The longer one has been on the path, the more wisdom they acquire. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Today we are talking to Guy Diehl, a bay area still-life realist painter who has been involved with creating a life centered upon art for over 50 years. His early childhood challenge of dyslexia was relieved by art-making and he simply never looked back. He has peered into all kinds of artistic genres, often spending a decade of passionate investigation into any he felt drawn towards. </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">For the last decade or two, Guy has focused on making incredibly alluring still-life paintings. His mastery of acrylic paint and materials is unparalleled. His sustainable art practice and “make art no matter what” attitude is inspiring. Come listen to the wisdom of the art and life of Guy Diehl, a fellow traveler on the creative path.</span></p> <p><span style= "font-weight: 400;">================================</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">LISTEN IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN…</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Getting to know Guy Diehl and the start of his art journey [2:19] </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Insight from over 50 years of working with acrylics [17:35]   </span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Choosing subject matter, the beauty of abstract art, and why Guy loves photo-realism  [23:01]</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Exploring Guy’s use of natural light and the humanity found in his work [31:09]</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">How Guy decides the objects
