I am, however not going to talk about that today, I brought it up because that&#8217;s the photo I wanted to use and needed to tie it  in (I&#8217;m clever like that) also because as I sat there a few days ago  it hit me: I&#8217;m going to be 44 in a few days, and I am not a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I am still trying to find a balance between the creative and the business side. I think most artists are (like me) lousy business people (though I do know quite a few exceptions). We'd rather be in the studio than doing the business side of our careers. Maybe that's where the "starving artist" term came about.]]></description>

(go visit her) For the Q&#38;A page I started what seems a gazillion years ago&#8230; When you start to paint a piece, do you have images or ideas in your head of what you want it to look like or does it just develop on it&#8217;s own? I&#8217;m thinking all day. I think about paintings, and techniques, and colors, sizes, compositions. ALL.DAY.LONG. sometimes I wake [...]]]></description>
