I started reading a new book last night and I love it. It's called Show Your Work by Austin Kleon. It's a very fast read which always is nice and it's done in plain language easy to understand and not have to think too much. As usually I find my reading time late at night and don't have a lot of brain power left.

Three weeks ago we moved into a new home. New studio! YAY. Trouble is that I got sick the day before our move and am still feeling a bit not right. I am so excited to set up shop and start creating in my new studio and it's driving me nuts to have to just sit. Patience is not one of my strong points so pray for me. LOL
I am going to work more on my designer dog series and really push for some new ideas and breeds. There is just something comforting about our pets and why not bring them into the full color of their personalities.
I'm also going to start working on a series of paintings, well one at a time, but I want to do some work with children. Both working on social issues that effect them and just the cute moments that we cherish.
In between those new projects I am going to finish up my latest mermaid, painting with the universe done in bright colors. It's turning out to be totally different than I had first planned but I am finding the new direction exciting and am going to keep pushing myself beyond my comfort levels.
So lots to do but first more rest and planning, which always goes into a new direction.
