Every so often, an artist feels bogged down and can't quite put their finger on the problem. What's going on? Where is the inspiration, the passion and the DESIRE to work and create? It is disconcerting, not a good feeling at all.
As I look around my studio, I see remnants of old projects, beginnings of new ones, lots of notes, lots of tools and notebooks, paperwork, All important, and necessary to running a business. However, all the clutter can also bog you down and clutter your mind. It always takes me a while to summon the energy needed to go through it all and make decisions.And, by "a while", I mean weeks, possibly months, before it DAWNS on me, what the problem is...
CLEAN your studio space! Make room for new ideas and exciting new projects.
That is what I have spent the last two days doing: cleaning, rearranging, putting some things away, filing, and scrubbing.
It feels good. Really good!
I am not quite finished yet, but I am most of the way there, and I feel re-energized already.
Whew.
