This cold weather is doing something to my brain. It is simply too cold for me to focus. Instead, I am taking this time to research my next art project and write. I also just got " Restless Ambition" a new Bio of my idol Grace Hartigan and am loving it. Even though there are a million of us painters out there, I always feel alone in my journey. Getting insights from a master like Grace is comforting that the anxiety and struggle is valiant.

My next project is clear as ice in my mind. I've been keeping busy researching colors and color techniques, putting down my thoughts and energy to paper. The final product is never what it starts out to be since it is all about emotions and right now I'm really grumpy with this weather.

I look forward to Gallery shopping when the weather gets warmer. Got lots of plans.
