Happy New Year

Happy New Year – now get back to work.

Everyone finds it difficult to get back into a daily routine after an extended time off whether it’s because of the holidays or just the “I don’t wanna” feeling.  Finding inspiration can sometimes be hard especially after the kind of year 2020 has been.  I’m right there with you and have to give myself little lectures from time to time.

I find these ideas helpful when you are ready.

1-  Do what you can when you can

2- Don’t get overwhelmed – take a small bite at a time

3- Look at the bigger picture but start with smaller things to get going

4.- Try something new – new materials, new genre, experiment

5- Look at old paintings and take them apart visually – you’ll find lots of new ideas

6- Make time to work.

I wish you all the very best in the coming year and thank you for your support.  May the new year bring the reopening of our world, peace, health, happiness, creativity, joy, and prosperity.
