I,m retired now. It didn,t take five more years. I decided to take early retirement. Life is to short. Last year was the last of it. Getting back into my art again but not as much as i should. Working mostly on my Pen and inks. I do have a couple of oils going too. I need to get out and take pictures of the colors before their all gone. I hate the thought of winter coming, but can settle in to my art.
A beautiful day today. Worked on my 3x3 mini paintings this morning. I got told by the store i sell out of, we need them NOW! so i put on some music and away i went. It was great just to paint all morning and not think of anything else. Later it was back to reality-- mow the lawn and go get groceries. Tomorrow back to work.
It was a beautiful day today, so after sitting on the porch early this morning i was lead to start up my painting again. worked all morning on two i,ve got started. It felt good to forget about everything and just paint.
I finally started up on my painting today. Got a request for more of my little paintings--3x3 on down, so i started them plus a larger one iv,e been working up this winter. I guess it was a good day to paint. I also finished a pen and ink and started a new one. Must be spring fever:)
Spring is just about to break through. I,ve been stagnate on my art this winter -- maybe the winter blues, get em every year. I have worked on a couple of pen and inks, thats it. I,ve got two paintings lined up to start, got to get at them. I,ve also have some tiny ones i want to do, it will give me a challenge, thats what i need.
Haven,t done much art since i have this job. I,m working alot of hours until Christmas then the hours fall back i,m told. Maybe then i can concentrate on my art.
Back to work . Being off for a year really ruins a person. Going from no job to two is kind of a shock. I really hope i have time and energy for my art. Five more years and i can retire, if i live long enough i plan on exacly that.
