March 14, 2008 Day 329
The dinner party (see previous post) went swimmingly, and I was fairly relaxed instead of worrying if everyone was having a good time or getting nervous if there was a lull in the conversation. The food was great, but that's a given when I make a dinner party.
I didn't sleep well that night, though, because I was worried about shipping another large painting. The owner of our local Pak-Mail promised to come at 9 a.m. with a trailer to pick up the box (63" x 63" x 5") from me and the print (55" x 55") from my printmaker. But our little private road is next to impossible to find, and access at my printmaker's offers no place for a trailer to turn around in. After a few glitches, everything eventually turned out fine, but I can't seem to get through these things without losing a night's sleep first.
With this chaotic beginning to the day, and having to pick up Mike and Rachel after school, I didn't have the peace of mind I needed for today's drawing. I kept returning to work on it some more, and finally gave up:
Drawing #336 14" x 11"
(Note: There is a gap between the dates I'm writing and posting in order to give me time to get ahead.)
