An Update

Hi! Its been far too long.

I wanted to write to let you know I've recently updated my website! (click here to visit). The drawings section has new drawings, and I've streamlined the design so it loads faster and you can enjoy the work more.

Since my last post, I have been drawing. Simply drawing. My thoughts have been on my family and finally adjusting to my new job so I have chosen to take a much needed break from painting. The holidays were a little stressful, but very enjoyable and restful at the same time. Since the beginning of 2009, I've reconnected with old friends, some artists among them. It has been so reassuring to know that to take a hiatus, as I have, is not only common, but wise. After speaking with several trusted colleagues, from all sorts of the backgrounds, they have expressed how important it is to "let the soil lie fallow," as it were. It is important, during the times when work and production is slow, to observe the world and meditate on what the year can bring you. Life can send great inspiration to your studio, but oddly enough, if you're toiling endlessly in your studio and dying of frustration, you may miss it.

Well, my drawing has rekindled my courage now and with the coming spring, I aim to see my studio refreshed and reborn. I truly see great things coming this year.
