©linda germain some artist books |
So I am gathering my thoughts and getting ready to talk about a couple of my artists books as part of the artist’s professional tool box. I have been thinking about how to talk about my books for the last couple of days. I was even practicing as I planted tiny little seedlings of peppers, and lettuce today at the farm. I work best when I have deadline like this. Why do I need to be under pressure to get things done.
I tend to do the same with deadlines, but I take comfort from Twyla Tharpe, who wrote in her book The Creative Habit that constraints (including time constraints) foster creativity.
Having a set time to have something completed is better than never getting to it because there’s just too much time to wash floors etc! Don’t be so hard on yourself Linda!
thanks for the support. things went quite well. I learned a lot and have some new goals. yippie
