It's a Colourful Life ~ But keep it Organised


I have a lot going on in May this year... I turn 50 to start with and have a celebration parties in both Sydney and Brisbane.  I also have two Art exhibitions... One is a Solo Art exhibition at The Old Block Art Gallery & Cafe for the whole month and the second is Winmalee Artfest which runs over the first weekend in May each year with other artists.

While that is going on, I have commissioned artworks waiting to be create for several clients.  I need a lot of available, saleable artwork for the exhibitions, so I am madly painting to get ready and I like to have more than enough so if something sells, I have a replacement for the Gallery.

It's easy to get flustered to the point where things just don't get done at all. Guess we have all experienced this from time to time.  Just this week, while watching the TV show, The Block (Renovation and design contest on Channel 9, Sydney Australia) I was somewhat amused to watch some of the contestants under pressure ~ time pressure, decision pressure, artistic pressure, design pressure, team pressure.

Some did well and kept calm, others did not, they got very flustered.  The main reason was a lack of practicality.  They were rushing out grabbing curtains and curtain rods for their  rooms without measuring windows. Another couple forgot to purchase a doona for the bed (just a doona cover)!

Getting organised isn't that hard really. Just write down a point form list of what you need to do, when it needs to be done and in what order of priority, then just do one thing at a time and don't think about the other things till you cross off a completed task.

If you can get to my It's a Colourful Life Exhibition (see details in picture) you will get to see 12 of my Original Artworks up close and a bunch of my Art Sculptures too. 

Affordable Prints will be available of all Exhibited Originals too.

Make a day of it and come up to the beautiful Blue Mountains (The Block Gallery has a Cafe too).

I hope to meet you there :D
