I've been painting all week! Hooray 
I wake up every morning with creation on my mind, I make my morning coffee, smoke a cigarette, and immediately rush to get a paintbrush in hand. It's such a wonderful feeling to be able to make something come out on paper or canvas, especialy when it just flows out on its own. I do my best work when its spontaneous. For me creativity is something that just happens. I can't turn it on or off. It comes when it wants, thats why I always have a sketchbook on hand, if not an entire bag full of various art goodies. I must always be prepared.
This explosion of creativity was definately a much needed one. I have been feeling pretty low lately, painting helps to take my mind to a better place. I'm just terribly frustrated with this town, and I want out of it. I've been feeling trapped here and its been tearing me apart. As soon as my hubby and I can save enough money we are getting the fuck out of here! Unfortunately I'm having such a hard time finding a job right now, its difficult to find places around here that want to hire someone who looks like me.
"If at first you don't succeed
you gotta recreate your misery
'cause we all know art is hard
young artists have gotta starve"
... some lovely little lyrics from the song "Art is Hard" by Cursive. Wonderful band, all the CD's are good but "The Ugly Organ" will change your fucking life!! Check it out it's amazing.
I want to be back in art school so bad, or at least in a place where I can sell some work and make money as an artist. I would love to start selling some pieces, or showing them in a gallery. After all what do I need a room full of my own paintings for? I make them so share with others, for other people to enjoy and interpret. Right now they are just taking up space in my room People in this town just dont get it...
Here is a photo of the painting I just finished. It doesn't have a title yet, maybe you all could give me some suggestions?
I will put more up when they are finished, I'm going to go work on a piece right now.
Hope you all have a beautiful day
XOXO
