Never Say

  So, here I am again. I haven't been posting on here like I should. It's been about six weeks since I was here. Not something I brag about. I have reasons for not posting, but I'm not here to give excuses. My mother in law spent two weeks in Tennessee with her oldest daughter and my step daughter was gone for a few weeks. Art is very important to me, as is promoting my career; however, spending time with my wife, just the two of us, is way more important. I've also made a few trips to Paducah to try to get the rest of our stuff out so we can sell the house there and be done with it. My oldest step daughter has been very helpful with these trips, going there with me in her huge SUV. I'm very excited to say that I have my papasan chair and my workhorse easel in my studio. Finally. It's getting a bit crowded but I'm happy with the way things look. I also hosted my youngest grandson Daddy Mack. Four days with a two year old really took a toll on me lol. I enjoyed it, he's quite a kid, but I don't have the energy to do that for more than a few days.
  I'm getting back into my routine again. Painting pretty regularly. Taking full advantage of my dual easel set up. It really gets the artistic juices pumping. I'm currently working on two large size paintings. I really enjoy the "daily" small paintings that I've become known for, but there's nothing like going big. It's an experience like no other. I'm also making good progress on my next art book (a short book describing the processes on several of my paintings).
  I'm focused on being an artist again. I feel like a million bucks. Tax free.
