More Painting

I Did The Math...

...and I realized that I have to complete about eight 4x6 paintings/
drawings a week in order have 200 by October. Yikes! I may have to
start some lunch time drawing.

What!?!?!?

I got home from work today and saw a little Ikea box and as I began to
fuss at Ben for going to Ikea without me he led me into my studio to
see this. My jaw literally dropped. I've been wanting this self for
my room forever. He took out the old crappy shelves and did all of
this while I was at work. I haven't been painting much because my
studio has been so cluttered plus other distractions and now be says I
have no more excuses...except for arranging and rearranging the fun
squares. Also note the cat cube, bottom shelf second from the right. He even bought the bigger one because he knew I was underestimating how much stuff I have.

CORRECTION!!!

This is a follow up post to yesterday. Ben pointed out that I didn't
mention where I received my new "hoodie". He kindly purchased it for
me during his last trip to NYC from H&M...where my green hoodie was
born. He generally grumbles when I write about him here so I left
that out but apparently praise is okay. I also noticed today while
wearing it again that it indeed does not have a hood at all so it's
not really a hoodie (see picture below). What do I call it...a
neckie? It has a tall neck thing. I'm confused.

Posting Just To Post

I've been struggling to blog regularly since the self portrait series
ended. The warm weather has been drawing me outside and spring
cleaning is in full swing around here. It's a constant cat hair
tumble weed fight this time of year. I am scheduled to have an art
show in October so I have a lot of painting to do between now and
then. I've been figuring that if I can go to work and work 9-5 non
stop on projects that I can bring some of that discipline home with me
and apply it to my art. I just need to form better habits at night
and on the weekend. I need to paint even when I don't quite feel like
it. I need all of you to fuss at me when you don't see posts for days.
p.s. I think I have a second favorite hoodie.
