"The main focus of my work has become storytelling...
honouring the lives + stories of women
through portraiture."

Obsession

10/12/2016

Sometimes I feel rather obsessive about this art life of mine.  I can't seem to not paint...ever.  I travel with paint and my favorite holidays include demos or plein aire painting and, to be honest, I'm not much of an outdoor painter as I tend to prefer my studio....unless it involves a lovely glass of wine and snacks.  When I'm asked how I find the time to paint, I honestly have to say that I have to find time to do other things...you know, like clean my house, work and volunteer.  I feel the same about reading.  When my daughters were born I had a playpen in my studio space so that I could continue to paint as they played or slept. And I'm grateful for this obsession as it grounds me and gives me absolute joy.
