Not enough time for art?


Sometimes, there just isn't enough time for creating artwork. Life gets in the way. However, I have found if you take a class, even if you have your own creative studio, when you take a class, it serves as a discipline to set aside three hours of time dedicated to creating. When you're at home in your studio, somehow when the phone rings, it's got to be answered, laundry keeps calling me, so does dusting, and oh, then there's food!

When I take a class, I'm away from all that and I am allowed to be creative. I give myself permmission to escape from household chores, friends calling and anything else that might be disturbing MY time to paint. I'm allowed to focus and use the right side of my brain.

So, carve a time away from it all, you're worth it!
