At least not on the same day. The house, the laundry, the fun outing, homemade dinner, work, tv, spouse. It's just not going to happen. Pick and choose each day and each hour. Bring a sketchbook or notebook to the field or keep in the car. Whatever works. I think it's important to be honest. It's easy for all of us to see blogs, etc and think we're failing because we're not doing 'enough'. OK - and with that - back to work! Thanks for sharing, both of you.Gina Perryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07470793439269219158noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1248171609570250166.post-71266197883141425292012-02-17T09:08:39.557-08:002012-02-17T09:08:39.557-08:00Thank you so much for this post. So, so much. I ...Thank you so much for this post. So, so much. I could relate with everything and I needed the reminder that sometimes in life we need to progress in baby steps. I am a single mom of a very active tween, working 8-5 and a part-time job while proactively trying to make this illustration dream come true. It might take me two weeks to paint a single image. Now that soccer season has started I have so much anxiety wondering how I am going to fit it all in. Your post has helped calm the nerves and quiet the guilt. Wishing you all the very best in this phase of mommyhood.Jenn Bowerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06641483659758406883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1248171609570250166.post-65059145925620754922012-02-16T16:25:50.571-08:002012-02-16T16:25:50.571-08:00I'm loving the characters sketches Ggina!
I a...I'm loving the characters sketches Ggina!<br /><br />I am so impressed with what you do. You have two little kids and trying to juggle that and work is not easy but any means.. so hang in there. What you are doing sounds perfect to me. Making the best of a few minutes every time you can. That is the way to go.<br /><br />I see it like this, even though you are not working after those minutes and get on with other things, the subconscious keeps on analyzing every bit of information. That is why we find ourselves thinking about the dummy while waiting for a red light to change or think about a new word for a manuscript while washing the dishes. <br /><br />Nothing is ever wasted. I am really proud of you because what you are doing takes commitment and effort. You rock! :o)Alicia Padrónhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04310467713291422507noreply@blogger.com
