So on the 1st of January I got the flu. The week before I had prepped my art business and had the house somewhat organized, so that come the new year I was ready to just go with my art business and not worry about anything else. It's been almost 2 weeks. Feeling a lot better and hopefully I can be more productive. What are some things that you do to be productive? While reorganizing my work space I discovered a lot of notebooks, full of ideas that need too be looked at. How many notebooks do you have? Are you like me and start one and then another? Hopefully I can combine my ideas and put them all in one book..... For the last few weeks I have been thinking about color a lot. Before we lost Mackenzie in 2014 I used to use colour a lot in my art and my prints. So for my my first post of the year I wanted to share my favorite shade of blue. Do you have a favorite colour or shade? I plan to use colour more this year. Ironically the first piece of art I sold in Palm Springs after our move back was white - completely void of colour. Also, some of you might have noticed that my new website www.emelinetate.com is lacking colour. However I intend to change this soon! #modern #contemporary #color #blue #modernismblue #favouritecolour #colour #inspiredbycolour #palmspringsartist #britishartist #contemporaryartist #modernartist #freshnewstart (at Palm Springs, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bso5IFynIF3/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1vk1krloxgzan
