for the love of art.

i feel a painting coming on. meaning, i feel the need to create. meaning i'm lacking artistic time of my own and i need to get some soon. and need is the operative word here. when you are an artist or artistic i truly believe that you need to create. for some...it's your outlet, your vice, your high of sorts, your meditation and your pure joy.

so a goal for me in the next couple of weeks is to paint. i started a portrait of my son a while back and i'd like to finish it sooner than soon. for all of the reasons listed above.
do you hang art? if so do you hang it in a more traditional way, or in a super eclectic and clumsy chic way? do you paint? sculpt? sometimes i see being creative as a gift and sometimes a curse, cursed by time which leads to frustration sometimes. but i'll still take the gift of it for sure! enjoy your monday everyone and hey, get busy being creative :)
