so...about the art..

Where is it you say? ummm... yeah.. I said that too. I have a confession to make. It's been really hard to keep my focus in the studio. First I blamed it on the holidays and family.. too much going on. Then I blamed it on my need to tie up loose ends in a true end of the year fashion, tally the amount of artwork produced (14 pieces), make lists for the new year (what I want to achieve, how I want to achieve it, etc). I suppose that's enough blaming... But the result is that I don't have much to show.

I did finally force myself into the studio and made myself just do something. Anything. And as you might suspect two hours later I didn't know where the time had gone and I was really excited about what was in front of me... Yup. It's true. Just do the work and it will happen.

So to tally things up: not much time spent doing the work, excited about the work I am doing, much more to do ahead... here are a few peeks at what I've been up to...
lighting things up
building bridges
working title: Sunset...
Stay tuned! If the muses keep pushing me and the weather doesn't schedule too many snow days, more work will happen quicker.. Keep your fingers crossed for me!

Looks like today may foil your plans...crazy snow is headed our way!

(I'm delaying my return from VT until tomorrow because of the forecast).

Do you ever have studio time with your kids, where you all work on your own projects side by side?

Love what you're working on!

I love what you have done! I think NYC is getting some snow (?) Here in upstate it is just very very cold!!! Looking forward to seeing more!

I have the same trouble every January. The holidays are so busy and my attention span gets shorter. I find that it's a bit of a slog to get back into the studio again but as you say - getting there and doing the work brings the ideas and excitement back!

I understand what you are talking about completely! Show up and the muse will follow!
