In the studio

One of the reasons I've worked the same day job for so long, is that I get a nice amount of time off. I work in an academic library, and you can get an idea of what I do there here, where I amuse myself by writing about movies and other things in our collection. I'm not a librarian, because I've never had the urge to get that particular degree, but an example of why I stick around is coming up: Spring Break is next week, and I plan to spend most of that time in the studio. I have eight panels ready to go, a smallish canvas, and a bigger canvas, and about fifteen other paintings in process, so I am hoping for a pretty productive week. Actually, I've got things in pretty good shape as you can tell from those numbers, so even if I don't do much more than belch in the studio, it will automatically qualify as a productive week.
