Yes, I know. I’ve gone and done another disappearing act. But as usual, I have great excuses.

I’ve been busy grooming dogs in the morning, working 5 hrs every afternoon/evening at a travel agency, and trying to get a swim, a rest and some food in between.

Unfortunately, art has gone by the wayside as is always the case… its always the first thing I sacrifice. Cause its easy to do. Jobs for money get 1st priority, then food, then rest. Even the dishes get more attention than art… as pitiful as that sounds.

This coming feom a woman who didn’t mop the floors for weeks…

So, for now I’m sharing the last 2 small pallet trays I painted. I found the trays and couldn’t resist them cause they seemed cute, and just added a few touches to make them cuter.

The first one got fish, cause, well, everything gets fish pretty much. The second got an octopus… just because.

Other than that, life is pretty much as always. The island is still full of people but its a lot quieter than last month. I yearn for winter and quiet. And time to myself, to be at home for whole days at a time where I don’t have to see anyone at all… or be anywhere.

Oh lockdown, where are you now?

Is it healthy to wish you could just be left alone to do your own thing?

I bought a tiny folding bluetooth keyboard which I’m trying out on the phone. It will take a little getting used to if I’m to use it to do stuff like this, but it sure will be handy for connecting to the TV for searches and other typing needs.

Whatever.

Hopefully I will find/make some time to do some art soon. I miss it.
