COLD complication
As winter approaches, I am more & more distracted. I buy a handful of pantry items for single recipes. For example, I use canned cream-style corn in one indulgent corn pudding recipe and buttermilk only in cornbread. But, the problem arises because they look like similar items in the cupboard –anything canned or my regular milk. You only have to put buttermilk on one bowl of cereal to not want to make that mistake again. My solution? Organization. A simple letter or two scrawled on the container top has stopped me from wasting time and food over and over again.
In the studio, I am always walking the line between organized and over-planned. My instincts run toward scheduling, pre-planning, color-coding and efficiency. But, I also know that when I over plan, I have guilt when I stray from my original design that sometime keeps me on a path (that often isn’t really working) longer than I should. But if I don’t schedule at all, I end up procrastinating, the stereotypical downfall of beret-wearing artists in movies everywhere. This next Call is a perfect example. I love this publication. It is gorgeous. The art is phenomenal. Even their Insta feed is fun and inspiring. I keep thinking that the right work to submit will speak to me. As a result, here we are a year or two later, I’ve managed not to enter yet. So, let’s make a plan, be organized; enter early…
