Freaky Friday





Sunny Day, 2006, Oil on Panel, 8x10











Just a short post today. As always seems to happen on a Friday, I have 47,000 things to do in addition to a very full weekend, which includes a track meet, 2 soccer games, building the chicken coop, planting some shrubs, work in the studio, and a cook out at the neighbors, not to mention the usual daily stuff. I am also on the verge of totally freaking out about how many paintings I have to do in the next month or so. I need about 20 pieces for the show in Cape Cod and in early September I have a two person show in Roxbury NY and I probably need 12-15 pieces, depending on size, for that. Since we are taking a vacation the first week of August, and because the painting drying times are still being very unpredictable, I pretty much have to complete most of the work for that show before August.

Don't think I'd be interested in switching places with my daughter though. She is running a 400m and a 200m race, as well playing in a soccer game this weekend.

Shoveling chicken crap I don't mind, but running? I don't do running.

I love that painting too!!

Good luck getting everything done this weekend. I think I'd rather run than clean the chicken coop ;)
