I am on a creative buzz .....

I started three different paintings today!!
My work is going to be on display in Indianapolis IN for the month of September. I delivered a six panel abstract yesterday ... it looks good but appears small on the shop wall so I am excitedly creating some more new work to hang for the gallery walk on Friday the 4th.

I am posting the beginnings of all three here today and we will see if I can photograph the progress I make each day this week.

So, my words of wisdom for the day would be .... find the opportunity to create when ever and wherever you can!! I am so excited that I have the place and event to show off my work ... and the ideas are flowing because I have been drawing and planning! We artists never know when the time will present itself! Draw and compose every day!!!!

  1. I am feeling very creative as well. I think it may be a change in the weather...and in my case a very clean house! I can't wait to see your progress this week!
