Today after finishing painting the boards I attempted to place the drawings on the left edge instead of the alcove considering Gary’s advice. This position seemed more commanding of the space and utilized the whole room. When placing the drawings […]
I find myself incensed by an overheard comment Wendy Williams quotes in her blog, incensed enough to post twice in one day: www.a-n.co.uk/p/1534479/ “If you can’t be a full time artist, then don’t do it at all” I have the […]
