Hmmm, a progress report...

I worked on revising my artist's statement for a bit last night. It still isn't coming out the way that I am envisioning it but I know that I am getting closer to what it is that I want it to say. I enlisted the assistance of some mutual friends asking them to describe my artwork and was extremely surprised at some of the similarities between their comments and what I am working on elaborating a bit more myself. It is funny-strange how that happens! Although, I'm not done with some of my self-proposed projects, I can see the progress that I am making which in turn encourages me onward. I am certain that I'll allow this to brew a bit, if only in my mind and on note strewn pages and scraps of paper until I come up with what it is my muse is trying to tell me. It is definately a journey of self-discovery and one I am enjoying along the way!

After revising it a bit, tweaking it here and there for awhile, I decided to relax a bit with Somerset Studio's Summer 2006 issue. Some of the artwork featured within this Gallery issue blows me away yet encourages me to experiment and play more. I just know that somewhere deep down inside me that the artwork that I am meant to create is there, laying silently somewhere beneath the surface. I've just got to start making more time to truely tap in to it!

Well, working in the studio is calling my name as I didn't make it out there in the a.m. like I imagined that I would late last night. It rained here last night, thunderstorms, and hearing the rain as it hit upon our bedroom window air conditioner lulled me right off to sleep. What a restful sleep it was! I feel renewed this morning!!!!

I've managed to check my email, post a reply to several friends, post a reply to a group where I'd made an inquiry last night about the possibility that I might have made a mistake and sent something important to the wrong address. I was happy to learn that wasn't the case, and replied that the missing postal package had happily been located! What a relief that was! You couldn't possibly imagine the terror I was feeling. Afterwards, I check in with the 2p's mb and gallery, posted some replies and left some praise for fellow artisians.

I've been writing down some questions and concerns that I have to discuss with Rita re: the consignment possibility and came up with some solutions to a few things on my own to discuss further with her.

Well, today appears to be the beginning of yet another busy day so I suppose I should be getting myself ready to arise to the occassion. I'll try to update again later...... {*tootles}
