I like the sound of this artist -he is anonymous -no one has seen him execute these random acts of graffiti art! His work has been seen all over Manhattan and the other boroughs. Here is an article about Banksy from the New York Times.

I came across this article about Clementine Hunter in the New York Times Travel section. Clementine Hunter was an outsider artist who grew up on a slave plantation. In her lifetime, she painted over 10,000 pieces of artwork and painted on everything she could get her hands on, for example, discarded wood remnants. She lived in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

Daily Routines
I came across this inspiring and motivating article from brain pickings.org about how to recreate daily routines. It's not about waiting for something to happen, you need to make it happen every day. I liked one of the quotes " A small daily task, be it really daily, will beat the labors of a spasmodic Hercules." Here is the book from which the quote came from. Here is the article.
