A Mother's Musings

Wow I'm tired! I've been painting like mad, trying to get enough art work for the Art Expo Las Vegas Show coming up in a couple of weeks. I've been so busy with commissions lately, I've sorely neglected building a body of work. I did finish up a really strong 48 x 48 Aspen piece today! My husband, wonderful man that he is, took the kids (we have 4) to San Francisco for a couple of days to give me some non-interrupted work time. What a wonderful gift that is! It's amazing how much I get done without the loving distraction of my children! They're still so young (7, 5, 3, 1), but someday I plan on making them my little art slaves and run a sweat shop right out of the studio!

"Darlings, here's a quarter for all your hard work today! Thanks for prepping those 10 canvases for me. But maybe tomorrow you can kick it up a notch and do 15."

What a dream! Hey, this is supposed to be a family art business! :)
