so in 24 hours the kids will have officially finished school for the year. Apart of me is looking forward to the easy mornings, and apart of me is dreading the long days of sibling fighting and heat!
I've decided to spend the rest of my day painting. All jobs can wait for the weekend. I'll hopefully finish them all by then. And I'm hoping that by having the kids under my feet I'll be injected with some Christmas spirit and enthusiasm.
I've been in a complete illustrative rut and really just want to put down the drawing tools, don the mother cap and dispense with all the unnecessary crap I have in my house either by giving it to charity or tossing it in the bin. And then when the mood hits me again, i'll pick up the paint brush and paint away. So apart from a few smaller items, there will be no more work added to my Etsy work until next year. perhaps a few finished pieces of painted originals for the bigcartel shop. Once the kids are back at school and I've had a break, I hope to reinvent myself, be truthful to myself and stay on ONE path for as long as I can. And before I know it March will be here on my doorstep.
