Another finished! Oh, the joy in completed work.


You know, my New Year's resolution was to finish my projects (the same New Year's resolution I make every year) and I do believe I'm accomplishing it little by little.

Michael is finished! I spent the weekend working on this piece (and others) and the completion feels RIDICULOUSLY LOVELY. I'm exhausted from some late nights in the studio. My space is a mess. And it will only get more exhausting and messy as I close in on the studio show deadline. We've changed the date a few times, but we're settling on the first Friday in November (Nov. 2nd). Postcards are being made and the task is now to finish a nice body of work to show. With Michael finished I am assured I have it in me to finish another ten or twelve pieces in a month and a half.



I may spend a little more time on the pot and back hand - maybe the ceiling, but for now I'm moving on to a new piece. I bought three more large canvasses and have a slew of smaller ones freshly stretched and gessoed. Get to work, young lady! Get. To. Work.
