If life gives you lemons

2 min read

next up , an imaginary sketch a day,

next size up, a life drawing a day.

Then lastly an art journal for the art therapy course I am currently doing.
Apart from that I think experimenting with landscape and plain air painting will be a sub focus this year.
So as not to irritate my watches I think I will upload the images to scraps and then file them. So please make sure you are not watching my scraps section.
Thank you so much to my friends for all the encouragement

and to all the people who are watching

, be patient with me, I look forward to how my art expression will grow and in the future having a studio again.

It would be great to hear what you think.

Also, I want to wish everyone a most amazing year end, holidays, time with family and friends and new year!

I will be quiet for a few weeks seeing as I am almost all packed and moving again. Going to start the new year in a new place and I am excited to see how my art is inspired by the changes.

So the holidays are over and work has started.My year has had a slow start but I know its because once I get going I am unstoppable

I am doing some designs for a sand art company, so although I am busy I may not post my work for them here. I have also been spending some much needed time with my son doing fun stuff like paper mache and making candles

I have some commissions coming up and an exciting body art calendar collaboration project to creatively direct.(allot of planning going on before the work hits the gallery) One of the most exciting things about being an artist in this age is the challenge in diversity and creative flexibility that we offen have to face.Therefore I am excited to see what this year has install for me. I appreciate you all and I wish you all a fantastic year ahead.

Fields of snow as far as I can see
A frozen double-ring to bind us
A bed of frost to set us free
Sleep in solitude's winter wings
And one more farewell kiss for me
Dream again of happier things
This is how it ends

If life gives you lemons

Feb 15, 2015

So for some reason my life has turned 180 degrees. No work, at the moment, no studio, at the moment, and since we are moving around periodically - less is best. So time to set some new challenges. I bought myself some different sized journals and since I am used to working a minimum of 8 hours a day on my art, the journals will be allocated to various studies. The smallest is for a mandala a day, :headbang: next up , an imaginary sketch a day, :happybounce: next size up, a life drawing a day. :squee: Then lastly an art journal for the art therapy course I am currently doing. Apart from that I think experimenting with landscape and plain
