Christmas Spirit

I am really struggling with not being able to work. There are so many things that are going on. Family deaths, running errands for family members and out of town guests. Then there are the holidays, right around the corner. I am so excited that guests are in town. We also have a new addition to the family. A little puppy, Bongo, that I will post photos of soon. Much to keep me busy and out of the studio. I am thinking that by Monday I will be able to get back to work. I have a commission I am doing right now and have some matting a framing to do for the gallery. I need to take care of that tomorrow. Plus the Christmas decorations. Still haven't managed to get our tree up either. For many years I also have made this elaborate Christmas village that I am putting up this year and adding some new things to. Art and the Christmas holidays just don't seem to mix. Bring on the New Year!

Can you keep the Muse waiting???

Still no new work...

A death in the family has caused me to change studio time. Today a funeral and tomorrow a trip to San Juan to buy some frames. feeling really restless and am very cranky from not working. Where does the creative energy go when you are not being creative?

I do have a new painting concept in mind and cannot wait to begin work. Am gathering images now and hoping to begin the initial work next week. Ahhh, the joy of spending time in the studio with nothing to think about but my work...
