I am always amazed, and also a bit jealous, how a artist painter can turn a blanc canvas into something that is worth looking at. Especially some pieces in your post are so detailed and also painted in a uniform scale. I can watch hours to some paintings discovering new details.
When I was a child I used to watch Bob Ross paintint on television. My mom says I was so silent and impressed that this was even better than letting me watch cartoons. Even when I see an old show of Bob Ross now I still like to watch it.

I can imagine that you had a great time watching all these artists make their one masterpieces. The one even better than the other.

Watching painters doing their work, a beautiful view, nice weather, a cold refreshing drink.. Life couldn't get any better!
