An Art Work A Day

I am working at the moment at creating simplistic movements.

Today has been a bit tough - lots of difficult thoughts.

Since I am not a domestic godess, I have struggled getting the house cleaned before Xmas this year. Too won out as well as usual too. This is more what I'd like to spend my days doing hehe

Close to midnight and suddenly I was able to work again. Who cares what time it is :-).

As a teacher I regularly get to see how hard it is to be a teenager. So much going on inside as well as bodily. I for one would not want to be 14 again.

Tomorrow I will be working with the local art and crafts union preparing for the Autumn exhibition. Unfortunately, my books will 95 % sure NOT arrive in time so I will have to show and take orders, that is IF anyone at all should decide to buy. I do not believe in any visitors and then in any buyers before I see them because numbers was very low last year. Feeling kind of anxious but do not dare to get my hopes too high up in case we will see low numbers this time too. BUT, of course I dream of it being a success.

Very happy tonight because I am starting to get my energy back and have caught up on some of my grading work.

Wishful thinking today in my painting since I have spent all of today correcting and grading essays and tests since I am 100% sure that will be among the very first things some of my students will ask tomorrow morning.

It being Saturday I thought I'd present you with a couple of partymoods this weekend. I hope you enjoy.

Quite a bit over the last months I've been fighting feelings of low self esteem and worrying and wondering about where my painting would go in the future. Today's painting is a try to visually show some of that kind of confusion in thoughts.

Yesterday at 3.15 p.m. a dear friend of our family passed away in hospital. The last weeks of illness as well as the last days have been a time of supporting and comforting each other and especially the widow.
