It's been a trip, that's for sure. I had an amazing experience in Portland at an artists' 3 day workshop. I wanted to learn strategies to feel I could create without any preconceived notions and get out of my head for the process, and I believe I succeeded. I brought home 3 paintings, two of which seem fairly finished. One I'm proud of the process I created, and I have no desire to own it, so I think I'll see if I can actually sell it. One is something I may put up in our bedroom and the 3rd is as yet unfinished. I so enjoyed the process I learned - THAT I will try again, but on smaller canvases. And I was so enamored of this artist's work that I bought an original. Yes, spoke to me (or rather, it MEOWL'd to me, as it was aptly named).
Now that I'm back to reality, it's a mad slow slog to getting the kitchen back in order. Which we are taking our sweet time doing. Only one more sand and paint session and we will begin the process of moving things back in slowly. And taking a longer look at what we'll be putting up on the walls. And what will become part of the BabyBoomVintage inventory for sale, or what will become part of the inventory for mixed media art.
Trying to keep my feet on the ground and moving forward.
Onward Ho (again)!
