Upon return from our Florida trip we tried to go to the coast for two weeks in our little trailer. Good idea to get out of the pollen. But June at the coast isn't so great... it was cold and rained all of day #2. And we took Monty, and it was too cold for him to sleep in the car as planned so we all tried to fit into the bed. Yikes! G and I were so cranky at the end of three days we just decided to come home and brave the pollen here. The only being who had a good time was Simon (see above)
ok... topic number two, rejection. I applied for a Playa residency and didn't get in. I really wanted to get in. I wanted to go there because it is beautiful and I'm an Oregon artist and there are so few Oregon programs. I thought I might not have a good chance because everyone there and at Sitka where I applied too seems to be ecology/nature focused. Since I have just started doing this in the last 3 years I bump up against letting acceptance or rejection define how I feel in the moment. I could also use some input... feeling like I need some feedback. Maybe I'll set myself up a formal critique and have yummy snacks for those who come. Would you like to come?
Have I said I love my studio lately?
