Some say that today is 'Blue Monday', the most depressing day of the year - kind of a convergence of Christmas bills coming due, seasonal lethargy and depression, regrets over broken New Year's resolutions, etc., etc.

Well, that explains today, anyway, but not exactly the past two months. I haven't made any art for two months, hence I have not posted on the blog for two months.

There was a slew of deadlines to meet last Fall and I was working like crazy. Then, BAM!, it just stopped. When the holiday season commenced I never got my momentum back.

I was hoping for a major shift when the New Year started, but that hasn't happened. In the past few days I have yielded to what is and come to accept the lull. I know that most artists experience an ebb and flow of production, but I can't say it ever feels good.

There are so many opportunities ahead for me this year. Maybe that's the problem . . . . deciding where to start and overcoming the overwhelm.

So . . . I've been spending the time getting my ducks in a row, but to paraphrase Seth Godin, it's time to do something with my ducks!

I will keep you posted . . . .

Until next time-

MCH

P.S. I do have one quilt out showing. My QR quilt "Double Talk" is currently at "Form, Not Function" - Quilt Art at the Carnegie. Small consolation that I'm not a total deadbeat.
