Day Dreaming

I have had a nasty virus which stopped me in my tracks and now on the other side of it I can find some positives to be had from a forced halt to my creativity. I really do not actually stop thinking about work it is with me constantly, whether making it or thinking about making it I do not really get any rest from it.
My head hurt so much there was no place to go except to try and get some sleep, a few days of that has given me a break from thinking and I realise that I need to do it without getting ill to do so.
I have some exciting new ventures on the horizon this year and I want to make some space for new ideas and so thats what I am working on achieving.
I have had some beautiful new canvas's made which I picked up this weekend and I am surrounded by the presence of a blank space so this is definitely a theme which I am not going to ignore!
I am going to take my time and day dream a little.

Artists House For Sale

I seem to have lots on my mind this month and selling my house is at the top at the moment and although I have trouble with the popular belief that painting is relaxing Grrrrr at the moment it is taking me away from myself which is a great relief!!
 I have had to deliver my little painting to Royal Academy for the Summer Exhibition and then had a meeting at a gallery which I will not name until I have something to report but was really positive and gave me lots to think about.
Images for new work are just constantly running around but I think selling my house really unsettles something very deep because I really really want to move and I know where I want to move to and when I want something I really cant seem to let it go  which sometimes works for me but other times does me no good at all!!
