the 17th

It is the 17th of nov. and I have not posted in 5 days. Where did the time go? As I have mentioned, I am working on a handful of drawings for secondstorie and my etsy shop. Here is a peek of what has been going down.

There are about 12 drawings in the works/finished of 40 that I would like to have done. Not too good.

Speaking of second storie,


I also want to thank studio71design for posting a drawing/print of mine on her blog. It was very cool of her to do that so check her out.

I was feeling real good in the studio today. I looked through Sara's cds and came across the White Stripes Icky Thump. That cd was on repeat all day. Then I made 2 horrible drawings and was irritated with myself. So I left. I can't stop thinking about them so I am going to go back to the studio in about 2 min to see what I can do about them. Jen went and saw Ani DiFranco in Boston this weekend and she will be home in a little while. That is all the rambling I have left today.

carvingmyinitials.etsy.com

Well the etsy shop is moving along slowly but surely. I will have it up and running by friday 11/14/08. There I said it, now it has to be done. There is a lot more to it then I imagined and it makes me a little nervous. The first 2 items will be prints of original drawings. I have not picked which ones yet.

I was working on art related projects all day today and it fealt really awesome. Tomarrow I work and the studio will have to wait until the evening. I feel like I am really doing something with myself and my art even though nothing has transpired....yet. Thanks for the help and support studiomates. peace.

yes I said peace.



My dream house in Portifino, Italy. Warm thoughts.

Etsy

My etsy shop is almost complete. I still have to figure a few things out but it should be up and running tomorrow night! I am pretty excited about it. I was at the studio for a few hours today and will go back in a bit. It is really cold in there. This counts as working right?


Here are a few little drawings I have been working on. I am aiming to have 40 completed by the time secondstorie comes around.



On the way to the studio up Atlantic Ave. I always pass this train yard and railroad bridge. I mention them because I get ideas for my work from them. The colors and composition, the graffiti and grittiness interest me.

VOTE



I hit the poles this morning with Jen and I am hoping that history will be made. This will probably be the most important election in my lifetime and it was exciting to be a part of it. The waiting game begins. Good Luck Senator Barack Obama.

only made it 3 hours

I was at the studio for only about 3 hours today. That is all I could do. It was hard to get going hopefully tomorrow will be better. I did start 2 drawings but I am not sure what will become of them. Here is a pic of our living room and the area rug we want to put in it. What does anyone think? I think it will look crazy but in a good way but would like to have another opinion.

Studio day

It is almost 9 am on monday and I will be heading to the studio shortly. I can't wait. Try to make it 8 hours today. Be back later.
