Happy Puget Sound Evening!
Great post Michele.
I go to my studio everyday now because of three different necessities. The practical one is, of course, I actually now have "paying" commissions that will help meet my personal expenses. This has become especially poignant since my heart attack and a subsequent "lay off" at the sign shop I work at.
Secondly, there are just so darn many new things with regard to technique I am just dying to try out on a handful of new projects.
Lastly, and the main reason is......I simply have finally completely surrendered to the seduction of my first love......drawing. From my earliest recollections as a child to my present age, every single time I put an instrument of drawing in my hands, be it pencil, brush, or crayon......Time completely becomes vapor.
Who else here has started to "just put in an hour or so" on something at 8 or 9 pm and the next thing you realize is the sound of birds outside your window chirping away looking for their breakfasts?
