How time flies! I was so hoping I would be more dedicated at this blogging thing but once again my busy life has taken off like a runaway train, slow to start but out of control once it has momentum. Learning to pace myself has been one of the hardest things for me to be consistent in doing. Once again, I just have to throw on the brakes, catch my breath and restart. I keep getting better at it but still a sick kid and a snow day can set things off running again.
The other part of blogging that I am learning is deciding how much I want to say and to be able to say it well. I don’t want this to be open venting session and just because I have opinions doesn’t mean I should just share all of them because the mood strikes me. Being thoughtful with my words is as important to me as being thoughtful with my art.
So what have I been doing… cleaning and purging. The studio is a mess but things are coming to together in the rest of the house. The hardest part is everything has potential to be art in my mind but I don’t have room in the house for it all. I will watch an episode of Hoarders on occasion to give myself a mental push forward and loosen the “I might need someday” hold on the stuff. It works for me. I am giving myself through February to get the rest organized but then it will be time to get busy on new art. Wish me luck.
