Studio Friday: YELLOW

I found this photo about a week ago and put it on my desk. Every time I've looked at it since, my entire being is flooded with pure golden joy. This dirty little face and sweaty blonde curly kid is my golden yellow. He may be 15 now, not 2 and his hair has darkened and has lost it's curl, but he is still dirty and sweaty and he is still my golden yellow joy.
I thought to just keep it sitting there on my desk, but when I read the challenge for SF this pic and YELLOW delight immediately came to mind.

Also...


About a year ago, I made a mini book about me. I used attributes of colors and gem stones to describe my own attributes. Here is the "shades of yellow" page.

Thanks Tine for the great inspiration!

Studio Friday, April 6

Part III of the new SF mini series looked at from an artist's perspective in a different angle and light: "The Seven Deadly Sins"

This week's topic for Friday April 6th: Sin #3: GREED!

This is an ugly one as well....uuuuh! What is it you are greedy about or feel greedy about? Is it material or is it a behavior? Are you greedy for emotions? Do you hoard? How do you want to change for the better? It can be small steps or do you rather take a big step to change?

Time
Even though I only work maybe 6 hrs. a day, even though the boy goes to his dad's for 2 days every week, even though the man doesn't get home from work usually no earlier than 6pm, I never seem to have enough extra Time. Time just for me. Time to sit in my studio and create. Even though I sit in my studio every day and create, it's never enough Time. If asked to do something during my Time, you better watch out, I might bite.
