In a bit of a whirlwind...

Around here lately... And I don't think I am going to touch down anytime soon.

You may find that at the end of each month... That I am scarce if present at all. The case is usually that I am hulled up in my glorious studio spinning out artwork like indian burns... Shoving every bit of time I can find into concentrated chunks, then forcing out masterpieces in multiples. That is the way I seem to work it out these days, with just a slight bit of pain.

As the story goes, much like the last, I have a number of shows to produce paintings for and the deadlines are, well, near, very near! Like... I have one show up (done), one half hung (with the rest of the paintings perched on my fingertips), and I was miraculously gifted a weeks push back for another hanging, as well as the opening reception (sheesh, still more time left there).

Sorry I have been missing,
I am smack dab in the middle, you see, of an all out art cram!

On the family fun side of art obligation... I have been working on a project for little Ree Bee's school. I am making Flowers... And a rocket scene for the chain link fence that encloses the playground area. I was supposed to start it last weekend, during their annual spring work party, but... I was called, last minute, to do a Nike commercial, for the 2008 olympics, and well... I could hardly pass it up, those gigs kinda make a days worth of work seem like a weeks worth of pay-- for those of you who don't know, that was my old life, I use to do hair... BUT NOT ANYMORE! I am an ARTIST NOW, STRICTLY... Unless you are Nike... Or anyone else who wants to pay $800 for a days work... No really I WILL do your hair ALL DAY LONG for $800... No takers??? O.K. then, I guess I am an Artist, so I will, instead, do a weeks worth of flower painting for free- and love every minute of it!

I will be back soon when this little duster of deadlines drops me off anywhere near my computer.
