Celebrating Deadlines!
January 16th, 2012 § Leave a Comment
Sometimes I need to take a little break from painting. I’ve been super busy with several portrait commissions, a magazine illustration and preparing for “The Dog Show” exhibit at Blue Spiral 1 Gallery in Asheville. I finally finished all my work and delivered everything to the frame shop. So I took a few days over the New Years weekend to catch up on paperwork, clean my house and pay attention to my neglected critters.
I may fret about making a deadline, but I always meet them. If I didn’t have deadlines I’d probably unnecessarily fuss with paintings and make them much more complicated than is needed.
Making the deadline for “The Dog Show” was hard and fun. And now that the work is delivered my own dog, Lucky, can stop shooting me those sad dog looks!

I'm trying to spend the day painting and every time I turn around to check on Lucky - this is what I get - sad little dog stares! Breaks my heart!
