For the Record

Not for nothing is an artist's workspace/playground called a studio. Studio and study come from the same root. For sure, my studio is a place of investigation and inquiry, a place of experimentation and learning.

Takeaways from this quick study:
• Didn't catch on till after the fact that I was attempting to roll out two related but separate concepts simultaneously. Note to self—not a great idea.
• Had moments of flow and pleasure while applying paint; also had moments of barreling along knowing I was unfocused and rushed vs. intuitive and quick.
• I'm chomping at the bit to return to my studio, grab some gesso, and continue studying.

It's taking an inner push to post this study as is but I've chosen painting as a way to embrace being imperfect and enough.

Here I am!
