Random thoughts

OK, I am officially exhausted. Months of hard work on the gallery, two back to back openings (the gallery and the EEAG annual juried show), and nonstop running around trying to catch up.

Is my plate full? You bet! All my activities have really cut into my painting time. I have not touched a brush in my studio for 4 months. I am suffering from the extreme depression that goes along with that. I find that when my creativity is stifled, everything else just pales in existence. I go into limbo and just cease to exist as an artist, which crushes my soul.

Now with the gallery open and the hard work of putting the guild show together is behind me, I must somehow find a balance between all of these things and get back to what I am. An artist, a painter, a creative mind.

When my life is in chaos, everything around me is chaotic. Now is time for organization, balance and meditation and peace.

Trying to post more often

With the new gallery open, I haven't been as diligent about posting lately. Nor have I managed to get any artwork done. It is quite sad, although exciting. I hear my studio calling me, but getting in there to work has been impossible. Now I have the our Guild juried to show to focus on, which opens Jan. 23. This means I have to really get busy designing the catalog and getting everything into place.

Also, our gallery grand opening will be on Sat. Jan. 17. 6-10 pm.

Maybe by the end of the month I will get back to my hearts true love, painting!!!

Happy New Year to everyone!
