No Rest for the Wicked

I have not fallen off the planet, but I haven't posted any work lately because of a project on which I somehow managed to become totally in charge. We are fixing up a rental house to get it ready for listing with a realtor.
I have been driving all over looking at cabinets, flooring, carpeting, appliances, lighting, picking paint colors, making 20 trips to Home Depot. I have been cleaning and painting. Make that CLEANING AND PAINTING. I wake up at 5am thinking about more stuff to do. It's endless.
I want to be painting art, NOT WALLS!
Next week, I'm going to a family reunion, so that will put everything with the house back a week at least. At least I won't be going to bed dead tired.

No worries, Carol.

Sometimes life gets in the way.

Can't wait to see what you create next!

The color jumps off the canvas. This piece is a true triumph very daring lines and curves. Overall I like this piece. You and another artist from the United States Duprel Antwone have really caught my eye. How can go about seeing more of your pieces.

Thank you, Samuel, for your encouraging words about my work. Many of my paintings are categorized according to subject matter/style on my website, carolnelsonfineart.com.
