Feeling a bit more organized this week. On Monday my new Scottish landscapes went on display at Bistro Provence, a French restaurant in Leith (a neighborhood of Edinburgh). They look good on the walls, and people had lots of nice things to say at the opening, so I’m starting to believe that landscapes and I might have a future together.
I’ve been working on some long-overdue administrata, as well. I updated my website and added a page for landscapes. I also updated my list of exhibitions, and was pleased to see that I’ve got something on the calendar every month this year through July already. I feel like my art career is finally starting to bounce back from the neglect it received during the year of international move (Munich to Edinburgh, with a long layover in Tokyo) + leukemia (my husband’s; he’s doing really well now). (I should really come up with a catchier name for that year. The Year of Stuff that Happened. The Rollercoaster Year. The Year that was Awesome and then Terrible and then (Slowly) Awesome Again. OK, I’ll keep trying.) Anyway, I’m very happy to have so many exhibitions on the calendar. I better get painting so I’ll have something to show at all of them.
