Every time I oil paint I seem to make a huge mess. Luckily most of the paint (that doesn't quite make it to the canvas) ends up on the well placed drop cloth. However, I often find it on the floor, the chair I was sitting on, and without fail I find it all over my arms and legs. Sometimes while I am scrubbing paint from underneath my fingernails I find myself frustrated and annoyed. Yet, without the mess I would never achieve a beautiful creation. Mess is a part of art and more importantly a part of life. I am starting this blog to celebrate the mess that is life. I want to find the beauty in the process of creation. Here I hope to share some of the things I am learning in the process of living my life and covering my blank canvas.
