Tidy for now, but not for long ...

Written last night:

Dear Friends,

You often read of artists who have studio assistants. I used to wonder what these people do. Now I know — they keep the place organized, they wash the paintbrushes, and they clean up the floor.

That’s what I tried to do today; it took all day and I’m still not finished. It’s like doing dishes— keeping the paints where they belong is a constant job.

I’m making my home my own. It’s phase 2. The first phase, which took a year, was to make it presentable. Now I’m making it mine. (Those paints won’t be tidy for long.)

Love,

k
