I have been so busy this week that I haven’t had a moment to paint, however I have been creating paintings in my mind. This morning I just had to put a sketch down on paper as this character has been haunting me for weeks.
At the moment it is just a light sketch, but I am so relieved to give her life. Now I just need to find some time to get out my paints and finish her.
Today is my darling husbands birthday so we will be busy spoling him rotten, but hopefully some time over the weekend I will be able to get some painting done. I really need to get back into the routine of painting regularly and build up some inventory for my Etsy store.
Yesterday I had set aside the afternoon for my daughter and myself to finish unpacking the art room. I had to work an extra half an hour so I had organised for a friend to meet my daughter at the school. Her son is in the same class and my friend was coaching basketball at the school anyway. I arrive a half an hour after school got out to find my friend hysterical and the children missing!! It is a 100m walk across the school at most and they just hadn’t shown up. So we drove around the suburb, called friends and finally after an hour my friend phoned the police. I will say that by this stage I was mildly hysterical myself!! I decided to do one last drive around the suburb and managed to find them over at the high school basketball courts, a block away from where they were supposed to be. Turns out to have been a miscommunication between my friend and her son, but it gave me the fright of my life. Today I feeling very grateful that all is well in my world.
