We each have to do what works best for us.

It's how we spend our living time that gets more precious and the need to define it for myself seems to get stronger as I get older.

My focus is still there, I am painting away, sometimes selling my work. Mostly enough to keep me in materials and the odd trips to London art exhibitions. I'm loath to jump on the social media trail. I do feel that when my art reaches a level that resonates with more people it will find the light of day without me spending precious hours not painting. We are blessed to have something that is so addictive and renews our creative spirit, so I would say, don't feel guilty, celebrate your life as an artist and go with the flow, as you are doing. xxxMillie Deanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07734198178614918846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7777493233451474951.post-44812618029786224522016-08-25T19:27:29.208-06:002016-08-25T19:27:29.208-06:00I totally agree with you about the demands of blog...I totally agree with you about the demands of blogging. I had to learn to shut my ears to those demanding social media/blogging "experts." If you follow that advice you will never find the time to do what you really love - write or paint or garden or spend time with family and friends. <br /><br />I admire your dedication to your art and to life. I enjoy your art whenever I do see it, too.Diane Klettkehttp://www.inlightofthis.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7777493233451474951.post-16707198681268150472016-08-25T16:21:38.468-06:002016-08-25T16:21:38.468-06:00Hi Teri: thanks for responding, we are all too bus...Hi Teri: thanks for responding, we are all too busy these days it seems. I have been at this for over 30 years- if I didn't sell I'd hate to buy a house just to hold all my paintings. They are all previous to me, but like my kids, I have to let them out into the world to brighten other people's lives. I am glad that found comfort in my struggles with blogging, and to know that you aren't alone.

And I don't ever sell my work. Man...my house is getting so crowded!! But it is wonderful to hear you say all this and to know I am not alone. Creating art isn't about the selling for me. They are like children and I can't discard any of them.Terihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13046623774704584939noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7777493233451474951.post-67842025631512648022016-08-25T10:32:42.638-06:002016-08-25T10:32:42.638-06:00Thanks for the support Alice.
