 Hey guys, how are you? We are here for my creative years my muse for December 2019 the last one of the year I can't believe the year has gone by so quickly and so much has happened in the last year It's mind-boggling, isn't it? And my muse is Loving the new space Loving creating art in the new space the closet does bug the crap out of her. I've posted it I've posted about that on social media In the last few months the closet's bugging the craps bugging the crap out of her having to dig for shit in the closet At the time of filming of this I don't know how I'm going to solve that and it's not a top priority because I can still get to things but Organization in the new house and setting things up and fine-tuning them to be perfect is right where she's all about That includes the creative space for the most part the space is real good every now and then I come across something I want to use or I need to use that's not exactly right. So that Really? derails her and sidetracks her until we get that solved and then we can move forward with whatever Actual art thing that we want to do So I don't know if that happens to you where you just get derailed by the chaos and you need to stop and just clean and put Things away Before you can go forward that definitely happens to me. It's happened to me a lot since I moved It happened before we moved to but it's really happened a lot in the new space Understandably I think But it's definitely where I'm what I'm all about at the moment and Probably will continue to be periodically on and off. So I don't know about you but You know, that's where I'm at. I do have a series here on YouTube where I share some things that I have set up in the creative space for storage and Some things that work and some things that aren't quite right But I do have a series on our room organization and there is a playlist for that. So I'll try to link it in the description below I'm always looking for new ideas. I'm it's an ever-changing ever-flowing process so this year this month our theme last theme for the month is education and our challenges joyous and You need to just Be joyful about your process whatever Voice and form that it takes however it manifests for me the churning and cleaning and sorting is part of my process And I'm okay with that for some people They need to never put things away and they like their place to be a little messy and a little chaotic And that really works for them if you look at some of the famous artists in the world And you look at some of the pictures of their studios some of them are really messy. I can't create that way I It's not perfectly clean. This is my working studio behind me. You can see the desk is fairly covered There is like a clean space in the middle, but yeah, that's how I am and some people need it need need as a pin I'm something in the middle. I need to be able to find things when I need it make a mess when I have to and clean it up quickly when I'm done and That works for me so Educate yourself this month about what you need and what works for you And of course if there's an art Tool or technique that you want to learn that you don't know anything about do it. There's YouTube. There's the public library You know, and we have our group of my creative ear people so ask questions in there I would love to see you all going forward asking questions of each other and You know, what are your favorite? books and things to learn from YouTube videos to learn from Besides the obvious I'd love to have you all start a list or at least a chat and conversation about it in the group this month Let's do that and don't forget to share With the rest of the group if you're not part of the group and you'd like to be You can go to the video description and click on my link tree list of links The link for all of my Facebook art groups and where to support the free content here on YouTube and over on said groups Or just stalk me on social media Is all in that link tree list of links my happy mail address is down in the video description along with a bunch of other stuff So check it out. I will include a list a Shortlist of a couple of books right now that are really speaking to me aren't wise Education wise but for the most part my muse is having trouble focusing on them because she wants to really to solve the closet issue So that's where I'm at right now Dang it All right, that's it for the moment. Don't forget to like share and subscribe I hope you all have a happy holiday and Don't forget to go out and do something nice for yourself because you deserve it. I'll see you later. Bye guys
