I am so frustrated today.
I mean to paint today but life got in the way.
Running errands for a project.
Cooking
never cleaning
working on sites where work is posted
working with my galleries.
Life just got in the way of THE most important thing.
It is not a good thing.
I sit here now and realize that the light is only good for maybe an hour more.
And then it slips into night and everything changes.
I enjoy painting in full sun
so that the colors are true
and the world sees it as I see it.
All of my paints change in incandescent lighting
and it will sometimes enhance
or sometimes take away from what I intended.
So I meant to paint today
and did not get to it.
In needs of stretching canvases
and soon in ordering another roll of primed canvas.
The duties of constructing canvases is time consuming
and certainly not my favorite part of the process.
So I mean to paint today
but instead will shop for some pigments that I am needing
and find more choices for enhancing my medium
and making a run for supplies.
I mean to paint today
but did not get to it.
So tomorrow it must be my focus.
The only way that it works
is to have it be my focus.
It is what drives me and I must respect it.
I must engage in what feeds my soul.
Painting does that for me.
