How to get everything rolled into one......

I ask you,.... why is it so crazy hard to get all my ducks in a row? I cannot seem to get all my social, marketing and creative paths to work in sync.... I am trying my hardest to make this seamless and effortless. I see people that can do it and I am astounded! I must be missing something important...
I have a few tech-type geek friends ( I won't name names, but you certainly know who you are)
that just laugh at me and shake their heads when I do not understand their psycho-tech-geek-speak.
I am sorry but all I want to do is create new works of art! New lovely visions with simple instruments that I understand, like the pencil. Remember that tool? That, I understand.. it is simple and straight forward and it understands me.. it knows what i want it to do, Just DRAW! It is so forgiving,.... not at all like web stuff. and computers.. the language of which is so lost on me.. maybe because I am just not that in to math... 0100101 blah blah....Shhh go to sleep now and think about all of this later... or better yet! Don't

A New Print Release and a New work in Oil on wood

Leopard Girls

Just released Limited edition print

Shop site

I just released this limited edition print last week after selling the original to one of my favorite new collectors..Thank you Janet xo I cannot wait to see them in their new home..

That is how it is with all of my babies, paintings that I make with my mind, heart and hands. While I am working on them I never really know if I am going to love them, or even like them for that matter... then there is a point when they become like my children and I love them no matter what.

xoxoxo

This is the same with my newest creation... I actually fell in love shortly after I started drawing her on the wood panel... She instantly came to life and became my favorite love.... the curve of her hip and hair and her little whip tails, set against the stormy sky.... ahhhh love!

I hope whomever takes her home loves her as much as I do.......

The Morrighan
