carolyn-dube-artistic-sins-2-600I am confessing my sins today.   My studio sins that is as I join in Seth Apter’s Studio Table .  The real studio table, not the cleaned up ready for company kind of studio table.  Be sure to check out all the wonderful real, in use, studio tables that are being shared!

What happens in my studio?  I leave my brushes in water all the time.  For days sometimes.  Hence my love of cheap brushes.

I have wonderful counter space to work on and it is usually piled high with supplies I’ve pulled out to use. No matter how big or small my space, this is what it looks like most days.   Apparently, I love digging things out from the bottom of the pile because that is where what I need always seems to be.  Does that happen to you too?

I'm confessing my artistic sins today!

My sink is not clean and I don’t care.  I have cleaned it before but it just gets so dirty so quickly, I have given up on the white sink.  And I am much happier for it!

I'm confessing my artistic sins today!

 

 

 

 

 

 

There’s paint and spray ink all over the floor because my studio is a splash zone.  And the walls.  None on the ceiling…yet.

I'm confessing my artistic sins today! I'm confessing my artistic sins today!

 

 

 

 

 

I feel so much better now that I have come clean that I am a studio slob.  I know you all thought I kept the studio pristine and ready for a white glove inspection…

Freedom from Fear with Carolyn Dube in 21 Secrets!Included in there will be my Freedom from Fear videos!   I share ways to play without any fear or judgment while creating – including how to get past the intimidation of the blank page, how to thwart the fear that rises up after you’ve started, and how to find the freedom in the imperfections.  Be prepared for something rather silly and fun that will quiet a cranky inner critic!
