You might be an artist if...

This little cartoon speaks volumes as to what it's like to be an artist. For me personally, the last panel rings most true. When not working on artwork I feel guilty and even when I have put in a full day and was very productive I still feel as though I should of done more and should be doing more. It's 10:54pm and I just finished working on some new pieces and have now moved on to working on this blog and after this I will be working on a new business card design. It's kind of a never ending deal, but I prefer it over any thing else.

Snowy Sunday

Well here in KC it's a cold snowy day. So were all just taking it easy and relaxing some. My wife is busily crocheting something new she's been a crochet machine the last few weeks turning out new scarves and hats.
Meanwhile I'm busy working on new pieces for a show in April down in OKC. The Oklahoma City Arts Fair. It's a week long art show so I need to get a large amount of work turned out before then.
Whats crazy is doing a single weekend show Friday eve to Sunday eve wears me out like nothing else. I usually talk more during that 3 day period than I do all the rest of the year combined. So I can only imagine what a week long show will be like. It will no doubt be fun as we will also be able to visit my wifes family that lives there as well and one of our very good artist friends is in the show as well. His name is Andrew Batcheller. He's an amazing and prolific oil painter you should definitely check him out. Hes on Facebook do yourself a favor and look him up.
