It's summer, finally


So our weather is finally turning to the better, the leaves on our tree are opening and I haven't turned the heat back on in over a week. Yay! However it also means that I'm spending more time doing "other" things rather than working. There are 3 summer pieces in my studio that are so close to being finished, 2 very fun summer shrugs that need to be photographed and I've joined a fabulous new site that caters more to fasionistas than any of the others.

I've posted in the past about my "accidental" summer hiatuses, which it seems likely will happen again. I don't do any shows in the summer so I think it sort of works like circadian rhythms with darkness, my brain just automatically goes into vacation mode. I wonder if there is a brain rhythm out there to define this? Ah well, it doesn't really matter, I can't force the work because if I'm not feeling it it certainly shows in the quality of the work and we can't have that. I guess I'll just create at my summer pace, yeah that's it, I just have a summer pace.
I will keep you posted with the new site though. It's a good looking site with some fabulous fashion, you should definitely check it out. And have a happy summer!
