The sun wants to come out

While preparing for the summer and fall shows has been taking all my waking hours that aren't being taken by family members. I so often find articles about making time for art in your life, I need a book on how to allow other things in your life when art is an every day thing.
I am Hannah's mother, an artist and Mikes partner.
 I painted six paintings using the same colors, here are 3 of them.
 
Chunk, not understanding why he cant go out with the dogs.
 On one of trips to AZ to spend an art filled week with my friend Dawn, I picked up 2 sets of the 7 gypsies house shape sets. I love them, but have yet to find a way to make them stand.

 
Here are a few things I made during Earth day
 
 I took some paper bags, threw some paint on them and proceeded to make art with them



 This is my favorite so far.

They look so great!
Hope you had a good weekend.
I have creative energy coming out of my ears!
Have a great day!
