Becoming too busy to paint can be very frustrating and this is definitely the season when that situation occurs.
On top of holiday plans, show applications are popping up daily on emails and plans are being made for upcoming art events. I noticed that all of these deadlines for entries seem to be falling in early January. The pressure of finding time to prepare for all of these things is quite real!
As a result, concentrating on painting will be very difficult. I have decided to admit that not much will appear on the easel until 2013 and spend what time I can find catching up on marketing tasks, cleaning up and winding down 2012, Applying to the shows that I would like to enter probably won't happen until January either, but maybe I can analyze what I might want to enter in which show so I can get the applications in on time.
Happy Holidays to everyone and Best of Luck in the new year!
