hell of a time since i've last written...a table in my studio collapsed which would have been nothing except it was holding some paintings that were wet...disaster!...one was ruined and a few were smudged and belonged to clients...now i have to spend time repairing the smudges which wouldn't be so bad if i were not slightly behind in my work...we are planning on going on vacation shortly and i really don't want to find myself working until the last minute...i want to take time out to relax a bit and move into a travel state of mind...i still might stop working early and give myself a fresh start after travelling however, keeping clients waiting for their work is something i get anxious about...hmmmmmmm.......
back to work...
About Me
- lisa g.
- i was born in a big city in ontario when the air quality was still good and litter wasn’t seen on the ground. the childhood that followed my birth was average for a canadian girl growing up in a small town in the early seventies. bell bottoms, dorothy hamil hairstyle and a banana seat bicycle were some of the things that i had, along with a box of crayons with a built-in pencil sharpener. i carried my crayons everywhere and drew all the time on almost everything. years later after puberty took its’ hold on me and changed my outlook on life permanently, i found myself leaving the small town for the bright lights of the big smoke where i enrolled in the fine arts programme at a university. i stayed on as a student for sometime then found myself disillusioned with the lack of inspiration that came from the faculty. so i left to find a mentor, someone who would inspire me, teach me, guide my creativity to find its' own voice. that mentor was found in the many books i’ve acquired over the years. i’ve found my inspiration through my travels and spending time following the footsteps of some of my ‘heroes’ of the art world.
