I Work Out....!

A fun but busy weekend is coming to a close. There has been progress in the studio...the kitchen, however, has its first coat of paint!  Hopefully, the second coat and the trim work go pretty quickly.  Talk about a workout!  Oh, and the cabinets are three different colors because they will eventually all be grey, like the right hand one.  That was the test one.  The left one is ready to be painted, and the white one still needs to be stripped and then painted.

Friday there was lots of art to see in New Orleans, as usual.  We saw some bottle cap sculptures, but still none similar to mine - that's a good thing!  Saturday night, we went to the art stroll in Covington along Columbia Street.  It was a pretty quiet night.  We jointly concluded that a lot of the art we saw were things that we can create, too (photographs, mostly), we just didn't do it first.  These artists names are already locally famous; therefore, we'd never break into this niche market.  It's a frustrating predicament, but it's also what makes me focus on other mediums to showcase my skills i.e. the upcycled/recycled sculptures (bottle cap/can art).  

What's my next actual art project going to be?  Well, spring fever does have my house a wreck, which is why I'm trying to finish those projects up first,  BUT I've got an 8x8 acrylic painting in the works and I think I've found the right piece of driftwood for a new sculpting adventure! 

Lastly, in case you haven't yet discovered - I am indeed back on Facebook, but just my art this time.  Find me under Coolbeansart Oohsparkly.  Cheers!
