of creating more and more art to display on this blog. Of course, that was one of the original purposes for creating a blog. . . an impetus to get into the studio and produce. But sometimes daily living, special events, or simply ennui interfere with making art. This week it has been a combination of all three. So forgive me if you've already seen this piece. I did exactly one thing to the painting currently on my table yesterday. I dry-brushed a bit of transparent burnt sienna to a few of the high points of the texture. I liked it well enough, but I had something else I needed to do and didn't want to hurry the process so I left the rest of it for later. And later did not come.

I admire your discipline Mary - even when Life conspires you still do at least one thing in your studio...
snow is sticking here this morning...winter has arrived.
I just discovered your blog and am so glad I did. Your work and words are very compelling. Yes, the business of life, trying to hold it all together, can be so challenging.
Blogging gives us focus and a gentle reminder to keep going. I look forward to seeing more of your thoughtful work.
Catherine: I am pretty sure that you are the only person alive who has ever applied the word discipline to me. When I started this blog, it was with the intention of posting something every day for a year, until 2-1-09. Then we'll see how disciplined I really am.
Melinda: Thanks for checking my blog. Another word not often used in the same sentence as my name: compelling. You have a wonderful blog and I will check back often.
