Here we are again.  This will be my third participation in the open house. I first moved into the studio on Jan 1, 2015.  I was so, so happy to find a place that suited me so well. 

It's often a challenge for me to 'go public'. Not the time to be shy, retiring and self-depracating. A huge part of being an artist is the ability to self promote. Well, a huge part of being an artist who sells what they produce.  

And really I always move past the message of FLEE, FLEE from my amygdala and enjoy myself. I've had such interesting conversations, caught up with old friends and met some cool people. So I will quit grousing, screw my courage to the sticking place and get on with it.  That studio won't tidy itself. No tripping hazards. No wet paint.
