A Busy Day in the Life of an Artist

Busy Day in the Life of an Artist

I was very busy this morning finishing up making my first four Secret Dream Boxes for sale on my ellensgreenart.etsy.com site. They came out so beautifully and one will be posted today. I also made a tshirt with the complete image of the painting (the Secret Dream Box only has the the central figure). I then spent alot of time photographing the boxes and tshirt in various ways to get the best shot.

I also received an email about using particular music of Steve Reich on my YouTube video about my paintings and it seems that it will be too complicated (for me anyway since I like to do things in the simplest way possible) to use his music so I plan to reshoot it with no music at all. I still think it will come out well and interesting I hope.

So I'm off now to work on my photographs on the computer, post an item on my etsy site and then begin a new painting, "Goddess of the Bees" and probably shoot a new video of "The Future Is You," the name of my last series of paintings just before it gets dark.
