it seems to be That Time of The Year. i am now in my winter slump (comparable to my summer slump), wherein i feel artless and dull and mildly depressed. the ultimate drudge. i have not made images to speak of this year, beyond a very very few one afternoon in texas, while mother was napping. i have not made art to speak of this year, beyond a mezclado book i worked on in texas, while mother was watching daytime TV. otherwise it is plodding to the office and home. the most two interesting things in life seem to be reading in bed and sleeping in bed. eating in bed follows closely. preferably chips of some sort.
mentally, i am interested in downsizing, simplifying, weightloss, restructuring my finances and dying old book pages, transferring images and stitching on them. but it is hard to find the energy to carry through. the artTable is in the coldest (and hottest in summer) room. i am wondering if i want to get rid of most of my cameras and have a tiny Lumix DMC-LX2 instead. don’t worry. i would keep my Valiant and jamcam and pencam and … and … ok. maybe *some* of my cameras. it’s funny. i still don’t give a single thought to acquiring a big luggish DSLR. i’m so glad.
