..Quite invigorating really, I suppose I could say demoralising but we won’t go there. Luckily I’ve got a membership to an indoor facility with an enormous track so the weather has not hampered my ability to get some exercise.

I’ve been working hard. 2 larger commissions and lots of ideas for new paintings. The problem is finding the time. Isn’t it always! Running your own art business requires lots of mundane activities that eat up the hours….things like, purchasing supplies, ordering supplies, packaging, running to the post office, answering emails, printing, marketing, posting facebook updates, trying to stay on top of social media, research, fixing things when they don’t work, accounting, banking, delivering art, …. etc. then finally once can get to the business of making art which also takes time. Priming, sketching, resketching, painting, cleaning up the spills, hunting for colours, fixing mistakes, starting over again haha, varnishing, creative brainstorming etc… So, always busy.
