HOBBIES/PAINTING

Over the last few weeks I have taken a lot of things out of my craft room and brought it down to the storage room. I decided that if I wanted to use anything I could just take the elevator down to get whatever. During the night I changed my mind! I need to have…

 I only spent about an hour painting. I finished two paintings, I think. They came our pretty good - not at all what I expected or planned but so what? I started by painting one canvas bright yellow. Then I painted another bright red. I didn't get too far. I sprayed the red with water…

We are staying home today. Hubby is preparing for a colonoscopy. His appointment is tomorrow morning at nine. I was told he can't drive right after so I am going to hire a driver to take us. I haven't painted yet today but I will after lunch. This morning I went through some of the…

    I KNOW THAT YOU WOULD WANT TO KNOW THAT I FINALLY STARTED PAINTING. I AM SO EXCITED AND SO HAPPY. I NOW KNOW THAT I MADE THE RIGHT DECISION TO TURN MY ROOM INTO AN ART STUDIO!!!!!!!!!! AS SOON AS I CAN I WILL GO BUY MORE CANVASSES. I NEED SOME REALLY BIG…

 I woke up very late - almost ten. I don't remember when I last got up so late. For many years I always woke up very late. Sometimes I would sleep until noon or later. Hubby would always look after the children in the morning. But for the last many years I wake by six…

      We are moving on June 15!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We have hired movers. Hubby is at the condo now where the plumber is doing some final touches. This afternoon I called a bunch of hospitals to see if they want any of my abstract paintings. I have to wait until they call back!!!!!...

I just decided NOT to do the garage sale again. My hubby wasn't crazy about the idea. I would have to get permission to park on the street. I did not want to go around placing ads etc. Instead I will do what my daughter suggested and call some art dealers. So I better get…

My daughter and I are ready. My paintings are ready. So far it's not raining but it doesn't look too promising. Everything is set up in the garage so it doesn't matter. I know I should be POSITIVE! I will be very very surprised if I sell some paintings. I am predicting that under 10…

This morning I am getting ready for my garage sale to be held on Saturday from 9-1. I chose some of my paintings to be in the sale. There is no way I can put all of them out. People would just be overwhelmed. I guess if anyone shows an interest I can always make a…

I am still cleaning and organizing. I finished two rooms. I have the last and probably hardest room to do. It's my scrapbook room. I can never get it the way I want it. I have way too much stuff in it. I guess I will sort through everything now. It's only four and we…
