Reframing a goal……

I have now done 4/5 12x12s and have started the 5th one. Then I have three 9x12s  and two odd ball sizes.  So probably in February i will actually go out and buy a new canvas! I suspect it will be on the larger spectrum.

Did I mention I have an art journal to finish and a ‘Pantone’ project half done? Oh well…it is good to be busy
