Some sewing

ok so i haven't been painting at all.....i've been sewing things........hoodies..........

Camera Charger Found! YAY

This is how big this painting is:

AS BIG AS ME

not sure which way i like it better

i'm calling it finished, but I know i will still tinker with a few things that annoy me about it

-just because i need to move on

And an update on this other painting too. 

hummmmm

I can't find the battery charger for my camera, so there are no updated pictures! although I have been painting! I am doing a show on November 14 that I'm really excited about..mostly because they are doing cool things like having an organic snack bar, and including lots of local artisans doing all kinds of different things. 

I've been sad lately, because I don't know where my life is going. The books I read give me hope and help me to just keep going. I'm very distracted by the things around me. I could be in the middle of something, but I just keep finding something else to tidy, or to organize, or to cook, or to bake, or to eat, or to tinker with...................

I wanted a simple life, so I guess it takes a bit of time to get to that point, where things are actually simple. But maybe they will never be simple....and I will always have to work hard. I'm okay with that, but I wish I could figure out the secret to being 'hard-working' because for some reason, I was looking the other way when God was handing out hard-working-ness or something.....

I'm trying to be super disciplined, hopefully its not too late for me to learn that skill!

smalls

whats that, erica? you want gesture? here you go erica. here is some gesture.

progress???? or just more madness

Almost done!!! I'm really anxious to finish it, but every time i go to finish it, i start something new instead.....hahaha

I started this one yesterday. i can't wait to fix it up. i like to start with a huge mess, as you can see:

this one is just a tiny one. 5x7 or something.

almost done. 3 more colours to go
