A challenging day

The challenges of my busy stay-at-home artist life begin to get to me.

I make a second pastel drawing, "sell" my first, and painstakingly (and painfully) clean many vintage buttons.

I finish decoupaging my first cigar box, and it leaves me exhausted.

I decide to decoupage a bunch of cigar boxes, to sell on Etsy. I am torn between my consumer philosophy …

I spend an out-of-it day running errands and clipping collage scraps. I analyze my frustration with my off-day.

I attempt a larger wall collage, and ponder a quilt-mandala collage and pastel play.

I wonder about decoupage's place in my life, make some drawings, and consider a hard clock-out time.
