Well I have been MIA (Missing in Art) but I have not been idle. This whole going back to work has seriously cut into my art time and I even considered taking more time off but it pays the bills so…..
Taking my own advice has not been easy but I am now doing art for me and not just to post on the different projects or groups that I am in. I have also not done a video in some time cause the pressure of filming the process, remembering to hit record (for me that is a challenge) and then editing and posting is just a little much right now. I will be making more when I get the time and the energy.
So what has been happening with my life, well I have arted some in the past weeks. Although a challenge to sit for extended periods, I have gotten some quality time in the studio and have actually enjoyed the process.
The more routine stuff has been getting in the way of my blog however, and I intend to remedy that. Barring a major relapse in my health I should be able to blog more frequently. I won’t post a blog if it isn’t art related as that was not the purpose of this adventure to start off with and besides, no one wants to hear about the type of work that I do for real, cause it can be quite troubling and depressing. But I really love my day job. What keeps me going though is my family and my art.
Have I ever told you that art can be very therapeutic. Well it can. For me anyways.
Enough chit-chat and on to some art. Those of you who are my Facebook friends will have seen most of these so if you stop reading now that’s cool. Have a wonderfully art-filled week and enjoy life. For the others here is what I have done in the time that I was MIA.
Yeah, the title does mention vacation cause right now I am on vacation until after labour day. Enjoying the sun, the pool and the down time.
Here is what I have done for DLP2015 – playing catch up but taking my time and enjoying the process.
And these are my interpretations of the Inspiration Wednesdays 2015:
I have also redone a canvas for a charity auction; the original canvas that I did is hanging in my dining room and was part of the 48 weeks workshop, although no two canvases are ever alike.
I also took time to get older, but I didn’t grow up
. This pretty card and box were lovingly done by my beautiful and extremely talented wife.
But what I am doing most of these days is taking it easy.
So everyone, thanks for reading and sticking around and being patient with me, and I wish you all an art-filled and wonderful week.
Bob.
