Early Day

I got a very early start to the day today. The guy was coming to look at my ceiling upstairs at 8 and I wanted to get some things done before then. So, I got up a little after 5 and have been busy since.

I did sneak in a little studio time this morning. I've been experimenting with painting the covers on books I'm going to use as journals. I'm really enjoying the process and the finished product. I have a few kinks to work out but I like it overall.

It seems that every project I start - even ones that seem incredibly simple - have a learning curve involved. Nothing is ever as easy as it seems. And it's the reason artists cringe when people say, "Oh, I could do that." Well... yes... maybe you could... but the key is that you didn't.
