I wrote a series of flashes the other day. Actually enjoyed the process more than I usually do. Is that a sign of growth, or did I just pick interesting subjects? Time will tell.

Today is reserved for errands and ART. Of the two, the ART is by far the more important. But, as with all things, errands creep up on us and keep up busier than we need to be. They often overlap the time we reserve for artistic endeavors. Thus, as I see them, errands are obstacles that are best dealt with quickly and efficiently.

I’ve already got two new paintings started. A third is in planning stages, and the group is unrelated in subject. I also set aside some time today to do some figure studies and some landscape drawing.

A lot for one day? Yes, but otherwise there is work. And that bleeds life from the soul. So, ART it is!
