As many of you know.....
having a child changes how much time you have for yourself, let alone to make art. I had to drop off the art world for awhile. But, a change in job, (got cut teaching another a period of art, to point that I couldn't even afford daycare expenses on my meager salary) to a take a preschool art teaching job with no take home work, frees up a larger amount of time to spend on myself. Which in my case always includes fiddling around with materials, trying something new, and sketching in the ole idea book. Filling page after page of jibberish and scribbles for ideas. 1 out of 14 maybe might actually come to life in some tangable material. So I am back in the art world again and more eager than ever to make those ideas more real. Whether they are a success or not, or a failure that leads to a lesson learned for some other creative experiment is yet to be known.......
