a slow start.
it has been a very slow start to my year. it was my complete intention to take a hiatus for the first few months of 2015, but with the unplanned BROKEN FOOT, i am now forced to, and am moving at an even SLOWER pace than i expected ! i am trying to put a positive spin on it: i have time to pause (actually to completely stop) and to think about where i want to go with my work. all i know is that i want to go somewhere NEW ! i honestly think it was the universe who planned my broken foot so that i would actually STOP before i start again. i am often too feisty + stubborn for my my own good.
i was looking back at my really old work. thought about revisiting some of it. but then decided that i needed to move FORWARD not BACKWARDS.

white is right.
i’m loving the light and white in my studio.
white walls are like a clean blank canvas.

starting the year out WHITE !
though i do LOVE red brick, it wasn’t working for me in my studio. it was feeling dark and busy. red brick walls are wonderful for a restaurant, a cafe, a home, etc . . . but in a creative environment i need light and calm.
i’ve been wanting to paint my walls white for a while and i finally did it. it has changed the whole aesthetic of my studio. i’m looking forward to starting the new year in my “new” studio. i will reveal the studio side when things are unpacked and in order. i’m still in super slow motion because of my broken foot !
white is right.
