2018: Taking Stock

With the weather in Ottawa finally warming and LOTS of new, exciting, and inspiring art events kicking off (see links below), 
I've been taking stock.
My Mexico 2017 palette recently decommissioned

I've been reviewing and reorganizing all of my art spaces and my art supplies.

My 2nd floor bulletin board with some of my 6x6 acrylics
 And I am reducing all of the art supplies that I take out with me every day.

My Spring 2018 palette.

And I'm taking inventory on ALL of my finished and unfinished canvasses in my studio.

Me enjoying some studio time
I'm ready. 
Hope to see you out there making art as well.
