My painting blocks have not been as numerous but it's because I've had so many writing deadlines looming that should all be wrapped up by the end of next week.
The part that I have completely neglected is...big surprise... the exercise blocks. I didn't do a single one...NOT ONE! Besides coaching basketball once a week, I have completely dropped the ball on this one. I am going to apply myself BIG TIME in the days to come...
I think I need to tweak the schedule to change a block where on Tuesdays I write outside the house just so I don't end up feeling like a MAD RECLUSE by Friday. Especially since this Friday is a PA DAY and Owen will be off. (Do kids EVER go to school for a FULL week anymore?) So, maybe I should really give myself a 7 because I haven't been leaving every Friday because of all the snow days... OK, 6.8 FIRM!
Here are my latest paintings...
Oh, how they make me happy.
There is a sweetness to them don't you think?
I was thrilled to be back in the studio yesterday as I could not write one more word...
I needed to get my hands FULL of paint.
I LOVE to paint their little faces before anything else...
Here they are looking at each other...LOL!
I am so pleased with these little ones, it will be hard to let them go...
Which one is your favorite?
I also wanted to remind you of the PODCAST I taped with
my passionate friend Melanie Rollins.
During this interview, I spill the beans about an upcoming project
that I am SO CRAZY-EXCITED about!
Last, but certainly NOT LEAST,
Stay tuned for my next post as I reveal something so
unbelievably stupendous
that I'm STILL pinching myself...
I can honestly say it is my
most significant accomplishment
to date thus far in my ART JOURNEY.
I hope you're all having a good week.
I decided to do an overhaul in my STUDIO yesterday afternoon...
I can finally see the floor again, but what a JOB!
Stay tuned for pics coming soon...
With Love,
Oh, I love these too! They are just too sweet. I really like the way you blend the skin tones and love the soft colors in the backgrounds. Looking forward to your stupendous news!! :)
ReplyDeleteHa Ha - the exercise schedule - me bad too! Always the excuses - I put it down to being a creative. You get those sporty types and then us and it's really a matter of priority I suppose. Love all the energy you seem to be filled with at the moment. I love your paintings - they seem sort of more complex, a little more serious - perhaps more mature in a sense. I love the girl with the bird, she seems to be lost in deep thought. Looking forward to hearing your NEWS. Wish my computer at home was fixed so I could listen to your podcast.
ReplyDeleteSweet Danielle, so happy you are finding your balance!! I love your girls, so very sweet!!
ReplyDeleteI get the whole exercise thing, I'd rather be creating!!! I figure one hour of creating adds one year to my life!! Can't wait to hear the big news.
Really enjoyed the pod cast, you go brave girl. Way to get out of your own way and fly!!
