Taking my painting on the road!

As a small business, I do a lot of my painting alone in my studio. I have decided to take the advise of my cousin-in-law Tracey and paint a few days a week out of my studio. My first destination will be to Tracey's catering store where I plan on bringing my paints and folding table, and working there for a few hours. I am not sure where else I will try, perhaps my local Starbucks, where there are always a lot of tables open....I think the important part of this experiment is to see what it is like to paint in a different setting with others around me.

First of all, I am excited to just be in a different location, (I have been painting here for 15yrs, same table, same chair, same wall to look at it!)- but just to be out and around people will be very exciting. I also look forward to feed back on my latest painted baseball design that I am working on, it is always intersting to hear different points of view on your work. Generally I receive most of my artist advise from my husband who knows nothing about painting, but over the years, by fielding hundreds of my painting questions, he has actually gotten to be a very reliable source for opinions.

Luckily, my baseball designs are small, and easily portable. So I will report back with information on how my first excursion went, and if it has added to my creative juices, and need to be with other people, or if it only accomplishes the need to be around other people, without actually getting any artwork done!

To see an artist out painting is really not that unusual, but then they are painting the scene around them, -I may be the first traveling baseball artist painting scenes outdoors of baseball stadiums hundreds of miles away!
