Motivation… it is something that has been lacking recently…
I could blame it on my shamozle of a studio ….

The result of having lots of things packed up ready for the sale of our house (which seems to be somewhat put on hold)… I have to admit that this has certainly added to my general lethargy… but I am lucky to even have a space to use!
Or I could use any number of other excuses, some of which I am sure we have all used at some point or another…  my kids started a new school, my husband has been sick (apparently the “man-flu” is a real thing), my house is a mess and I need to clean it (oh, hang on… ummmm, can’t really use that one can I?)
But the truth is far simpler… I am being lazy … so I need to shake myself out of this slumber and begin work in earnest!
One way I read about – whilst I was procrastinating – is to start writing lists.
This might sound like a simple thing but being able to cross things off a list actually sounds pretty good to me…  Smaller more manageable deadlines, lists and more time dedicated to actually producing artwork… Sounds like a plan to me…

With the November exhibition calling, and a few competitions in between, plus some other personal goals I really need to pull my finger out!  In the meantime here are some pieces that I have sketched out ready to work on.

It’s not like I am lacking ideas… just got to get into it again…
