Easel is up...

Part  of the epic clean of the past 5 days has been gathering, cleaning, selecting and meditating as I ready myself to paint. I have never been that kind of artist that can paint in a cluttered, messy space. I am beginning to really  believe that MY brain and it's ability to perform truly is a reflection of my personal space and both must be open and not crammed with stuff in order to allow creativity in. I am ready and once this epic summer winds down and I am no longer called to my beach , I will begin and even though the process can be painfull and frustrating it is.....my process and how I get to the end result.....the finished work.
