The Holiday Rush

Halloween is just a few days away and I know the rush is on.  I have to say this year is one of the most creative years I have had in a long time.  We moved into this house about a year ago.  my studio is now in the house rather than a detached building.  In ways this is bad, BUT I love it.  I can be part of the family and still be working.  Though my children have a way of sneaking in here.  Boy does it get really creative when short people with vivid imaginations enter the space.  We may have to get a bigger space when they get older.

Beginnings

So the school year offically begins tomorrow and that means I have to start back to "work" on all things creative. YIPPY. What this really means is that I have several hours of "uninterupted creative juices flowing" time to play, because lets me honest. What I do isn't really work, I enjoy it too much. Thanks for stopping by. Ja
