Springtime blues?

It's technically spring now but we are still getting snow here in New York. I've had the winter blues pretty bad this winter and I have been struggling to create new inspired peices.

Sometimes it's hard to remember to be kind to yourself and let the creativity flow when it wants to. Nothing ever comes from forcing yourself to create. That has been my experience at least.

Here is something new I have been working on. This is a lot larger than the pieces I have worked on in the past. It's helping to shake things up a bit.

Lots of things in progress right now

On top of the other 2 paintings I'm working on, I started on a new palm painting.

In addition, I'm working on a couple art books. Everyday I have more ideas that need to get out. Stay tuned for more!  

Enjoy your weekend! 

New Year, New Work

I hope everyone is enjoying the new year. It's hard to believe that we are almost through with the first month already. A lot has been happening in my life lately and it has led me to some new inspiration and some new challenges. I recently completed a cross country move, which has caused me set my art aside for a period of time. The new year has brought new energy with it that has helped me to focus once again. I have been getting back in touch with an old friend, block printing. It has caused me to be more open with my work and to let things flow more freely.
