I’ve been in a painting slump this week. I haven’t painted since last weekend! That’s kinda weird for me, but I’ve learned to just go with the flow. I’m coming up on my 4 year painting anniversary, so I’m used to the highs and lows now. I did a lot of busy work in my Etsy shop instead. Lots of photo taking, and listing. All stuff I fall back on when I’m not in the painting mood.

I’ve got a book calling my name later today, Cat’s Eye by Margret Atwood, so I’m gonna be sacked out on the couch. This is a re-read for me, since it was so good the first time around. I started reading it late last night, and read ’til I just couldn’t keep my eyes open a minute more.

I hope you all have a great Friday, and weekend. Happy PPF! I’m looking forward to visiting everyone today to see what you’ve been up to this week.

Be sure to check back in during the week next week. I’m going to do a blog post with photos of my homemade light box. Sharon asked if I would in the comments the other day. I just need to take photos..so sometime next week I’ll have it posted.

    I really like your style. Do you know you inspired me to sketch a face with my hand up over one eye. I have never drawn a hand, and I pretty happy with how it came out. I posted it like last week. I felt it appropriate for what I was going through at the time, but I think you inspired me! so, thank you!!!

      People tell me that I have a style a lot, but I don’t see it. I feel like I’m all of the place..from realistic to primitive. I can’t make up my mind which style I like to paint best, so I flip flop, depending on my mood. Maybe you have a style, and you don’t realize it?

  10. That is a book I have re read as well… I also loved Year of the Flood and The Handmaid’s Tale, which are both by Atwood… they are all worth a day of couch slumping… enjoy the down time and then you will be back and painting with a vengeance before you know it…xx

    Ahh, painting slumps…nature’s way of making you pay attention to the rest of your life.

  12. I really like these paintings. They make you think and art is suppose to do that.

    “Oh Hello” is adorable and cute and very whimsical….Adore this style of work, something quite comforting about it and seems to be saying take me home.
    lovely work MizKatie.
