that hat
after a year and a half of pushing the self-promotion plow hard, i have hung up that hat for a spell. not that i will not plow at all anymore, but the majority of the work is done for now. the soil needs space to breathe, and my emotional muscles need rest. i am pleased and relieved to have made it to this place, and i want to thank everyone who has picked up any evident slack in my work and spirit. the mantra now is “Shut up and paint.”
