My House is 'Trashed'

Okay...this isn't really my house...

they have tons of photos on the internet under

'messy house pictures' ... who knew?

My house isn't really this bad

but...it's still pretty messy.

I've been painting all week...

and not cleaning up after myself...

which always means my house is going to get 'trashed'.

I'd like to say the mess was why I'm not painting

as much as I used to...except...

when I was on eBay...listing new paintings everyday...

I lived in a two bedroom apartment..

with my youngest son and a very sick husband..

and I still managed to paint everyday...

and clean up my mess!

Hopefully I'm not getting...lazy!!

So many things going...all at the Same Time.

I have got soooo many things going...
all at the same time...

I wished I were a bit more organized.

I've set a 'goal' of the number of original paintings I want to

keep in my

Rustic Goth Etsy Shop 

and I'm close to reaching that goal...

the trick will be..

keeping that number.

Obviously I want Need to sell those paintings...

so

I've got to always keep new ones working.

Now...I've decided to include...

'portable art'

in my shop.

I'm working on abstract paintings....

I really have 'missed' doing those...

but I'm rather messy...

I 'lost' my studio to my youngest son

a couple of years ago...

so I have to do my abstract paintings...

outside...

needless to say..

my time is very limited...and depends so much on what

the weather is doing.

I'm also working on some new pieces to add to merchandise in

my Zazzle Shops...

I'm pretty sure I have many other things going 

I just can't remember them all right now.

Thank goodness for my little 'list' keeper.

Spending the rest of the year on New Paintings!

I made a New Year's Resolution

last year...

'to become better organized'..

and I have kept it!

One of my resolutions for 2010

was to 'build' a little

mini-studio in the corner of my dining room...

(I work mostly in my dining room and living room as my

studio/ print/ shipping center

is too cold in the winter and too hot in the summer)

Well..I was interviewed by

Sue Shellenbarger

of the Wall Street Journal..

who sent a photographer to shoot

my organized work space...

and

this prompted me to go ahead and

put up my 'mini-studio' a few weeks early.

Soooo...I will be spending the time between Christmas and

New Year

doing a batch of new paintings for my

Rustic Goth Shop...AND maybe even for my

CMZ Art Zibbet Shop.

Hope everyone had a

Wonderful Christmas

and wishing for you

a

Great New Year!
