January 2012

A new month and a new year- 2 significant events that happen all at once.

'Creating experiences, "masterpieces" and keeping the home fires warm. I seemed to be juggling whether to heat my house or the studio- I've choosen tomorrow (when the temperature is to be in the 30's) to look out the studio windows into the woods beyond ~ letting the ink flow across the blank white paper.

It would seem as I "research" - Every where on the internet there are many artists that have found their direction- I've noticed many that can coach, or share a direction - as they make their way through the do's and don'ts of making a living as an artist. I listened to a fantastic lecture by Eden Maxwell author of An Artist Empowered- promoted by Xanadu Gallery- he shared a perspective( http://www.reddotblog.com/wordpress/ ) I really enjoyed it.

I'm looking forward to depending on my art "cape" this 2012 year, as the brush touches the canvas or the pen onto paper~ may your year ahead be creative and delightfully successful, too.

Thanks for stopping by~
