Procrastination

As I sit on my couch this fine Saturday afternoon, I find myself procrastinating.  I had great plans for today, but so far they have not panned out.  First, I was going to join a conference call with Carla Sonheim and the other artists that signed up for her year long class.  Well I forgot, I ended up at the Belleville Flea Market this morning with my husband.  Had a great time there, but I won't get another chance to chat till next month, but then the flea market is only once a month.  I still have a few odd Christmas items out and the reason why you might be wondering,  I had planned to go through every box we have and get rid of items I have not used or displayed in years.  Well, that plan was a no go.  Checked out some of the works on the Flickr today of the latest giraffes.  Great stuff.  So I grabbed my sketch book, some drawing pencils and they are sitting right beside me, but I have yet started to draw.  I am feeling guilty about the Christmas items sitting out, but I have another excuse for not finishing it right now, is my husband is working the 3rd shift at his job for the next 3 months, and he is sleeping.  So, shhhhhh, I need to be quiet.

Later!!!

Imagine....

Imagine...... creating when your heart desires.  Imagine.....finding that one thing that brings your soul to your art....imagine.....

Finding the Time

Oh how does one that want to create and work a full time job, find the time to create?  After I come home from work and have dinner, I am tired.  Last night I wanted to work on a giraffe drawing that I am incorporating a zentangle pattern in.  I started drawing and next thing I knew I was falling asleep.  I have such a hard time juggling work, housework and creating.  What to do about that, I do not know.

Well I am at work and wanted to post a little message.  I have some time now, my student is in therapy.  So till later.

My first sketch for the year of the giraffe

The Year of the Giraffe

Ok, I am still trying to figure this blogging stuff out, since I do not post that often.  I am able to get a picture from Flickr over to the blog, but I want to add it to a blog that I am typing, not just post it as a photo.  Anyone out there that might just happen to pop by, who would know how to do this, please leave a comment.  I hate to waste the time trying to figure out something that is probably very simple.

But it is the year of the giraffe, and I hope to post pictures of my journey!

Till again.

What's Up!?!
