Don’t You Get Bored Working Alone At Home?

Nope. Look at the things I could/can/should/am/will do:

  1. draw
  2. paint
  3. blog
  4. update website
  5. photograph work
  6. sort through photos and refile those used/stacked/piled/contemplated
  7. plan for upcoming shows
  8. package notecards and reproduction prints
  9. sweep the dead scorpions and spider webs from the studio
  10. write another bio for the upcoming studio tour
  11. decide what to paint next
  12. update inventory lists
  13. look at artists’ websites
  14. read artist blogs
  15. read art marketing blogs
  16. visit a gallery or museum
  17. follow up on inquiries about commission work/lessons/paintings for sale

This list didn’t include rehanging my work in the studio, wrapping and shipping work to shows and customers, going to the Post Office, paying bills, updating accounting, balancing the checkbook, or weeding and pruning outside the studio.

Are you tired yet?

‘Scuse me, I need to go lie down.

  1. Cheryl, good to know I’m not alone in my alone-ness! And, we can always throw in a load of laundry if we need a “break”.

  2. I don’t get bored working at home alone either, Jana. Always have plenty of projects waiting for me. Good luck with all of yours!
