Happy Holidays - An Artist's 12 Days of Christmas

Happy Holidays everyone!

Yes I'm still here.  I've been cleaning and reorganizing my studio. I'm looking forward to 2012. It's been a crazy 5 years since I had my daughter and I greatly underestimated how difficult it would be to paint once I had her.

But it's all good. I've raised an adorable and personable little girl that is now in kindergarten and doing so well.

It's taken me months to catch up on everything that fell behind in the past five years! But I'm finally reaching the end. I'm looking forward to a slow but triumphant return to painting after the holidays.

I will love every minute I get to spend at the easel.

I've spent 5 years filling my head and notebook with painting ideas and I can't wait to finally put them on canvas.

:]

And since I had 5 minutes to myself last night while everyone was sleeping I took the one Christmas song I can't stand and turned it into one I could, because that's the silly things I do at 1:00 AM…. enjoy!
