the blahs

Today was kind of a blah day...it's always that way a few days after I finish a painting I really enjoyed working on....I started several new things but nothing kept my interest for long....finally I set up a small still life with fabric, a vase and a vintage asian doll...I am going to paint it on an 11x14 canvas, which is smaller than I have ( Read more... )

It sounds like craftwork has so many sections to do. You almost have to turn into a factory. That's why I don't do my wallets. First I have to wash all the fabbric, then iron it then lay it out, then make the tiles, then print it, then iron it on the back to set the ink, then sew it. It goes on forever, Then when I get to a potential customer they don't want it because of one small thing. And want me to make ONE!

Your paintings are very beautiful. Maybe focus is best. But that is my opinion only.

First and foremost, you must follow your heart.

Good luck having the universe align with what you need. With intent, you can do that.

Did someone say Perfume Bottles??
I have a huge obsession/weakness/sickness for perfume bottles, been collecting them for years. I'll be waiting to see what you come up with.

Your purses are diva, maybe that is something that just needs to marinate for a while until all the things you need to accomplish find their way to you. ;-)
