Go ahead and be critical of yourself.......<b>Suzanne!</b><br /><br />Go ahead and be critical of yourself....just don't make it a habit!<br /><br />You've got mad skills, girl! Everyone that checks out your blog can easily see that.<br /><br />It just sounds like a lot is on your plate right now and it's bleeding into your artwork.<br /><br />Keep going strong!<br /><br />-DeanDean Greyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01014573083751127043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6358020892440594492.post-37547417326796883652009-11-03T16:49:30.606-08:002009-11-03T16:49:30.606-08:00Diana, your comments are so calming and supportive...Diana, your comments are so calming and supportive. I can't thank you enough. I need to chillax and stop taking it all so seriously. Again, many thanks, your words mean a lot.<br /><br />Sheila, thank you so much! I think you're right. tim takes them on weekends, I get up to do the early morning duty so he can sleep before work, but I have them all day while he's working. I guess I'm just tired. <br /><br />Maybe Santa might gift you with a Six by Six pack? I hope so, I'd love to see what you'd do.<br /><br />Don, I mean really, what's the deal with dogs and rain? All they need do it let go and we could go in, but no, they just look at you like you're torturing them. Arrrrrgh! Cats. I miss cats.<br /><br />The free-lance thing just came to a head. I spent too many years designing work for people with no vision and little taste, in my humble opinion, and it just crushes one's spirit.<br /> <br />And thank you for the reminder. each time one of these empty phases shows up, I forget and think it's never happened before. Silly.<br /><br /><br />Vicki, wow! me too. I remember when we used rubber cement and pasted lines of copy on illustration board. It still feels like magic every time I use a computer to design something. And, of course, when my client received my design and then proceeded to change every little thing, I knew it was time to move on. thanks so much for your comment on the painting as well.<br /><br />Diana M., thank you so much! I really appreciate your words. And painting all day is something I'm so looking forward to, thanks. Just gotta steer clear of the dark place.<br /><br />Lisa, thank you so much.<br /><br />Leslie, so true. They whine, I stop what I'm doing annoyed, but when I see their little faces, I just melt.<br /><br />r - thank you so much! I really appreciate your kind words so very much!! Ah yes, the graphic design battle. I'm not gonna miss it.

Then came the computer and every boss' secretary could now do logo and newsletter 'design' albeit horribly.

You've got the talent. You know you've got what it takes because you've done it before. Now, just do it. (Hey, somebody should use that for a slogan - maybe shoes?)<br /><br />BTW, Your description of the recent graphic design work sounds a lot like every graphic design job I've ever done - ridiculous deadlines, multiple revisions, and "the check is in the mail"...<br /><br />-Don-Donhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17549962962379079880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6358020892440594492.post-16423608602714549182009-11-01T22:21:27.935-08:002009-11-01T22:21:27.935-08:00That 6x6 project sounds very cool.

After all, if it turns out you want a few deadlines later, you can always add the pressure of taking on a few jobs.<br /><br />I'm glad to hear you got the Elderberry for you and your sweetie.
