Success! I worked on one painting and finished another. I have a series of wine bottle pictures that a business owner wants me to paint in my artistic style. Then we can have an art show with with wine and cheese for fun! First one is painted. Many more to go.
THE PROCESS
I putzed around for at least an hour before getting down to business. I never seem to be able to just jump in. Painting was awkward. It didn't flow today. It seemed like my hands moved like they were under water, yet in 20 minutes I had finished a wine bottle painting. Amazing. Time stood still. Yes, there is a wine that is actually called "fruity". I'm hesitant about this writing in a blog thing. What I write doesn't seem very interesting to read when I read it back to myself. As I was pondering that thought last night I watched Janet Jackson being interviewd on Larry King. We share the same birthday, Janet Jackson that is. She says she doesn't journal that her music/lyrics are her life story. I thought about what kind of life would people think I led with Glam Gals, wine bottles, jazz musicians and hearts as my artwork story. They'd probably say...Wow! She sure liked her wine and drunk people! As you can see I'm still struggling with this artist part of me. Maybe this month will help me work out my lack of self esteem.
I'm excited to see what day two brings. Hopefully, I can squeeze it in between church, people at our house and the kids. It might be a late night artfest tomorrow. See you then.
