RE: On the easel and on being a dad

in #art7 years ago

Hi David,
Oh man, do I feel you. My first son is 2 years old now, and it's been a huge adjustment changing the way I create. I used to have several days where I'd just be in my room not communicating with anyone immersed in a piece. That might not sound great to a lot of people but honestly it was something I loved. Those days are gone, and I'm lucky to get 45 minutes of uninterrupted time. Buuuut it's still a small price to pay whenever you look at your little ones doing what little ones do. Beautiful paintings, looks like you're making it work. :)

Yes!! Totally. I love solitude in the studio. I could go 3 days without any human contact and be loving it (any longer than that and it gets dicey, lols). Big adjustment :). Thank you! (btw mine are 4 and 2, so we're in a similar stage)
