I cleaned my studio and I am breaking out of my rut. I have to stay positive and to do that I am putting my focus on my work. I have much to accomplish and a new painting begins to desire to be born. They call to me when it is time for them and despite the effort they always take I cannot turn away from the call of it. It is like preparing for a journey, you get everything in order, pack up your stuff and set your sights on the open road. It is a trip I always get excited about taking. Where will this one take me? I am hopeful it is a road of joy this time with a dramatic happy ending, Hollywood style.
