think about it but don’t overthink it

contribute to a show i'm curating about process, lists, notes, reminders and little sketches

offering clarity is a form of kindness

this week's updates from the studio, mostly pictures :)

sometimes you're winning

and sometimes you're just losing and learning... come see me and my art IRL friday, july 10th 6-8pm!

get back in your body

and stay there. plus new artwork.

make a plan to see a friend

and other reminders for tough days

no coffee after 3pm

a studio rule

it doesn't have to be perfect

you've got this and you know what you're doing

color is everything

be open to new mark-making techniques

feeling good is temporary

feeling bad is temporary

ask: what to increase? what to decrease?

finding the right question is half the battle

give it the appropriate level of anxiety and nothing more

plus how to do things

go where it's warm

begin again, little by little, discomfort, pain, trust

what if it works out?

this week i collaborated with two hundred 5, 6 and 7 year olds and nothing went wrong. it worked out great!

believe what you are seeing

keeping an eye out, in the blink of an eye, turning a blind eye, eyes wide open, eye candy, black eye

know your limits

be ready to unlearn some of what you know

do not let it consume you

a few little sketches and a sale on small paintings

the weather might be the reason for the bad mood

woven things, lists of things, everything happening all at once!

can you abandon what isn't working without shame?

painting reminders for mid-march

look closely and for a long time

out of the studio

be mad about it, that's allowed

painted fabric, favorite studio tools, starting something new
