Happy New Year

"Freshly gathered" 22" x 15" Fabriano Artistico 140 lb. CP

I wanted to go out the blogging year on the DSFDF portrait,

but that seemed way too long between posts...so here I am,

back from a short break. It's time to get ready for a new year.

Organize the studio, clean it up (!), file all the paperwork for 2008,

think about taxes (!), plan out shows, plan out vacations (!), gush

over new journals and sketchbooks, make a resolution to fill more

of them (!), take some workshops, teach some workshops, PAINT(!)

and hopefully enjoy a happy, healthy, productive and creative 2009.

WISHING YOU ALL THE SAME AND MORE!
