Today I’m working on a series of 6x6s in oils. I also have 4 16×20 paintings at various stages of completion. One is finally finished, and photos have been taken. I just need to find time to edit them, hopefully, sometime today. There doesn’t seem to be enough hours in the day when you’re an artist. I’m in my studio for 12 to 16 hours every day, and I never..and I mean NEVER get everything done on my to-do list. Something always gets left for the next day because I’m just too dang tired at the end of the long day.

When you’re a small business owner, there’s always something that needs doing. I’m not complaining..just stating facts, that’s all. I’ve worked at jobs before where I was extremely bored, and it made for some long afternoons trying to stay awake at my desk. Yup, now I’m complaining. 🙂 There wasn’t enough coffee in the world to keep my eyelids from drooping. I admit, I have to stay busy every second of the day because I get bored easily. It was especially painful when there was absolutely nothing to do, but I had to look busy for the boss. ugh. I hated that!! Seemed like such a waste of my precious time. So, I’m very grateful to be able to do what I love every day. I welcome the busy.
