Sophie's Back - Oil on Linen



Oil on Linen, 15' X 19" SOLD
Sorry, it's been a long while since I posted, I know.
You know that old saying, "Those who can do do, and
those who can't, teach"? - Well, that's been me for the
past few months. I don't mean that I literally can't
make artwork, I just mean that the economy has
forced me to spend more time teaching ( I teach
private workshops in my home).
I enjoy doing this
tremendously, but preparing for them requires a
tremendous amount of time and effort.
For instance, I am teaching one for the next several
weeks. It meets on six separate days. Just painting
the examples for it, doing the research, typing up
the text, putting together the reference materials
for the students, etc., has taken me three weeks of
solid work. Fortunately, I do enjoy that as well. I
think I was a monk in a former lifetime.
But it's time to get back to work!
And I mean ARTWORK!!
Thanks for visiting today.
