Cold, Snow, and Shows!

January and February have FLOWN by, and I write this after I just finished shoveling. Again. But the sun will soon be shining, and I can smell spring in the air (aah-aaah-aaachoooo!) even though there's still feet of snow on the ground. I have been busy in the studio getting ready for my Spring Shows and catching up on the commissions from last year.
I have also been working with a business consultant from the St. Thomas Small Business Development Center, and am almost 'finished' with my business plan, as well as working on the strategic plan and action plan. Still not ready to share the big changes in the works for the studio yet... soon though! But these are a few of my goals for the coming year:

• be more consistent sharing and documenting my artwork
• establish a solid and sustainable work | life balance
• continue exploring kiln work and connecting that with my leaded glass artwork
