In The Studio

Yesterday I was painting when all of a sudden my surroundings came into focus and I couldn't get past all the mess.  That's how it is with me . . .  a build up until I just can't stick it anymore. 
 
 
Fortunately I don't have any 'before' photos but after a little rearranging of furniture and sorting out I felt as though I could finally get back to painting again. 
 
 
I know some of you will be looking at these a little confused and thinking "Wait, these are the 'after' photos?" but this is pretty organized for me.  I can't work on one thing at a time, I have to have multiple pieces on the go.
 
 
I was really pleased to get some new paintings finished.  They are currently down in the basement getting their final coats of varnish and I'll be back to share them with you once they are dry.
 
What creative projects have you been working on lately?

    I tried a multi-media painting I guess you would call it. I plastered some thing paper on a canvas, used some Gesso, painted and varnished. I kinda like it.

    I do like yours.

    Oh I LOVE your room and your walls. I could stand and just stare at everything - so cool! I sent your link to an artist friend who longs for her own corner to paint and work in.........maybe it will inspire her!

    Creative? Well, my scarecrow fell over and I attempted to right her -- not very successfully. Does that count? :)
