I’m planning to be “in the studio” today, though I no longer have a dedicated studio space, for the time being. I’ll fit painting in, between loads of laundry and caregiving tasks, and thoroughly enjoy my creative time, whether I’m perched on the edge of a couch, sitting at the dining table, or working on the floor somewhere. As an artist, I’ve always been adaptable in this way, because for most of my creative lifetime I didn’t have the luxury of having dedicated studio space at all (and once I did, it was often true that I squandered that luxury, and found myself working willy-nilly in some haphazard expedient fashion nonetheless). I’m fortunate to be able to allow inspiration to overtake me, wherever it finds me.

Inspiration finds me everywhere. I’m looking forward to the next time it catches up with me.
