Sometimes you just don't have anything to say!

(Hubby says I should say "buy artwork!"on my blog, but I hate to do that. I am however putting together a website to "go public"... for whatever that's worth... maybe I'll get some commission work from CraigsList, haha)

I'm also working on another artwork. Had it in my head for a while, started creating it... didn't like where it was going, stopped working on it for a few weeks... now completely changed it and like it a whole lot better. That happens sometimes, if you don't like something you're doing but can't figure out why, put it down for a while and leave it alone. Then when you come back to it the solution jumps out at you. Heck, there was one picture that I put in a closet for 6 years because I didn't like it... then one day I looked at it, figured out what was bothering me, fixed it and finished it. As my instructors would say, "Art is a PROCESS!" For some artists the process is like a locomotive, fast and furious.... but I'm more the slow-boat-from-China type. Too slow, too careful, too meticulous about it.

The college district is having a student contest and exhibit, to be displayed at the Fort Worth Community Center. Money prizes. I need to finish more works for that. Show will be on display in November. Deadline is October, hope I can finish a couple...
