"House Finch in Snowfall"
(photograph - © Bruce A. Morrison)
Well
now...we're nearly in the middle of January! Things have been mostly
digging out of the piles I left for later, these past couple of years,
while I worked to put together the solo showing this past fall and
winter at the Pearson Lakes Art Center.
And the pile has been substantial!
I
have always had a slight issue with "putting things off"...especially
when I have other things on my mind. That's not so unusual is it? I
think a lot of us have the same problem. My neglected work just
happened to be a couple years or more worth of image files that had yet
to be processed and filed. That may not sound like a lot but believe me
it is a real "time killer"! I am now down to my last 30 folders of
thousands of shots of birds, prairie plants, landscapes and other images
I've taken in the past year. I'm slowly making progress, I think...
But
its a good time to take care of these things isn't it? I mean its
really crappy outside right now - bitterly cold and really not that
visually interesting..."here" any way! But while I sit here doing my
computer house cleaning, I keep coming across files that really stop me
and get me thinking...gee, that would make a great drawing or
painting...or maybe that file should be marked for more work as a
photograph?! It's aggravating to not readily afford to take time out to
just do these things! If I did, I'd still be back in my 2017-2018
folders and putting off the inevitable!
So
in the meantime I have rehung the gallery here, am finding work for
clients searching for that something special they were looking for,
practically nailed to my seat in front of the computer, and constantly
being distracted by things outside my office window...doesn't really
seem like much has changed!!!!!!! Ha!
Well enough said. If you wonder where I'm at - I'm here "catching up"!
Have a great winter and stay safe and warm out there, and we'll see you on the Tallgrass!
