Busy!
















Taking my inspired mood and going at it. Two more sqiggles finished, have 18 completed by now. May go larger. A shop owner noticed them on Facebook (they've attracted a bit of attention) and wants to display a framed sqiggle in her store for next Third Friday. I may mat and bag some for display and sale in the racks at the RRCA too. I probably shouldn't call them "sqiggles" at this point.... I photoed the group today.

This week I'm going to try and knock out a River marsh scene for the RRCA upcoming "Wetlands" exhibition. The 16 x 20 is already blocked out, it is one River scene I never got around to completing. Will try. Will post if I finish it.

Sunday's


I spend Sunday's at the RRCA, after I do my groceries for the week. Yesterday I could've worked but I opted for an afternoon swim and sauna, doing my taxes as well. Today I scrawled out 10 "squiggles" to hand color the rest of the week (I need something simple to do Tuesday afternoon and Third Friday night, possibly Saturday). Only took two hours of my time, so the rest of the day I helped out the director by patching and painting the galleries for Third Friday. My legs ACHE from climbing a ladder, so I'm off to stretch and enjoy some light yoga.......

Inspired!
















I hope spring comes soon as I finally feel inspired today. Think I had a bit of the winter blahs. I was putting one foot in front of the other, breathe in- breathe out, discipline in the back of my mind, waiting for that magical moment when I am on fire and want to work. It struck me today at the RRCA, so happy to be there and be a part of that organization! I colored some more monotypes. I am up to 80 or so prints by now, all numbered in sequence. They make more sense looking through then.


Helpful probably, I got my nose splint off yesterday. Wonderful taking a shower this morning! I am allowed to take vitamins again, go to the gym again, etc. No contact sports- as if! It is a little sore if I accidentally press too hard- which I did once, won't again, but otherwise there isn't any pain or headaches. The surgeon said it looks straight and made no mention of another visit so I guess I'm spared a future rhinoplasty. Whew. I did take a pic of my bare nose, but I look tired so I'll spare you all.....
