I've Stalled

Today, this quiet summer day, is the day to clean and organize my studio. I have been going great guns for the last four hours. The floors have been swept, the computer dusted and everything that was on the floor in the studio is now on the floor outside the studio. Now I find myself checking out my favourite blogs and browsing iTunes for some new music. Oh yes, and searching book prices on alibris.com.

I guess if I have stalled here at the computer I should at least be productive and write a long overdue post.

Where have the last two months gone? They have been busy: year-end fundraising at my children's school, three family birthdays including a milestone celebration for my husband, two pro-bono design projects, two trips to Prince Edward County and planning and packing for a family trip to England.

I haven't even posted about the Artist's Alley in May. Well, it was a sunny day and I made one sale. Which was one more than I expected. For me, this first participation in Artists' Alley was all about experience. Planning. Setting up. Trying not to feel shy. And, staying cool in the heat. I will be participating again on Sunday, September 12.

I am also three (?) months overdue with the POD Project I participate in with fellow art blogger Laurel at Cranberry Cloud. (Sorry, Laurel. Better late than never, eh?) Look for POD updates soon!

Now, back to some studio organization in order to have space to create some artwork. The following are photos from the past few months.

I will be back soon!
