"Everyday Christmas"

I should have been painting in my evening hours, but I didn’t get chance to do that lately. Instead, I have been learning QuickBooks and trying to get some bookkeeping going. Nowadays, people like me don’t have the luxury to concentrate on the art development. We have to take care of everything. Too bad we have only 24 hours and I spend the best part of it onto the boring stuff to make a living (a very interesting phase). The art projects always are the first bunch falling into cracks. Life is hard, and more and more complicated, but I am still optimistic. I can’t develop my art at the pace I wanted it to be, but it is at least progressing day by day. I felt the year went by so fast, and the holiday season is here again. I am satisfied. I have achieved a lot in my art with the meager time and energy I have.
In my today’s painting, I am still experimenting with what I learned from Sherrie. I will let the future decide weather or not I would keep this approach. The painting is a little larger (8” x 8”) and I put greens and reds on my setup. I hope our regular days will be as merry as Christmas. Happy holidays.

The time is gone like a flash, but I have not decided what to paint. One of those days happens more often and becomes one of these days. If you have been painting for a while, you know what I am talking about. Sorry today, I don't sound very inspiring to you.

With this painting I am experimenting using dominant red background, which I don't do very often. It was difficult, but I did make it. I am also testing a new canvas I haven't used before. Several hours later I will be on my way to Magnolia TX. I will teach a workshop there. I will keep you posted. Got to run. See ya. Oh! You take it easy. Don't be rush like me.
