Just another Thursday

Spent the weekend and this past week trying to finish up getting my house back into order from the redecorating. I tiled and painted a bar and cut masonite panels for some small paintings. I also had a baby shower invitation to make and print which I have been working on for two days.

I also painted the wall in my bar after stripping down wallpaper and sanding the wall. Need to finish all this up today so I can start painting again. Must finish my painting for the BCC exhibition on 9/4.

On another note: Exxon had another record breaking profit for this quarter. Explain this to me???

Spent the good part of the day yesterday painting and got a lot done. Made some major adjustments to some parts of the painting, but it is coming along nicely.
Just found out that the painting that was exhibited in Vienna, will now be included in ArtExpo Las Vegas beginning Sep. 19 - 21. Wish I could attend.
Have an idea for a sculpture that I will start working on in the next few weeks. Will keep you updated.

Still no Painting

As of yet, I still haven't managed to get any painting done. Website work took 2 whole days and I still have one I need to finish up. It will get done later in the week, as today I am painting, period! I am really feeling the downs I get when I don't paint. Amazing how stifling something inside you really effects your moods. Listening to some great Motown music today to lift the spirit.

Back in my studio today hoping to finish up my painting. Spent the weekend tiling and trying to get my house back into order. I did manage to get some masonite panels cut for some small encaustics that I have planned. I also need to send out a few prints today and finalize the details of an upcoming show.

Listening to some Sugarland today. In the mood for some country tunes.

TGIF

Tuesday I took my puppy, Bongo, to the vet to get neutered. Por baby, his testicles had never dropped, so they had to do exploratory surgery on him and he has about 20 stitches from where they cut him. I have been doggy nursing him since Tues. He still is having some trouble walking and I can't get the last piece of surgical tape off of him.

Yesterday was our weekly figure painting. I would post some of these, but they are nudes and not sure how the models would feel about being posted on the net. Once I get one that isn't showing much or a consent, I will post some.

Am in the studio today. Trying to finish up a painting that will be exhibited in Ft. Lauderdale at the Broward Community College South Campus in Sept. I will attend the opening as I will be in town for another event.

It's Monday

Besides being extremely exhausted from a weekend of refinishing furniture and getting the house back into some sort of order, I did have a great weekend. There was a repeat of an Interview with the Guerilla Girls Friday night that I watched. This morning I also read a great post on Joanne Mattera's blog from Wed. that was very interesting.
