Show Set up/ Clipboard Canvas

It's always nice to have new things to get you really excited about a show!  This sign was painted the morning before Wake Forest's Art After Hours by my husband as I madly dashed around packing and wondering what to wear.  Luckily acrylics dry quickly and it was a super hot day.


I spend a day or so organizing my pieces to try and minimize how much I carry as well as use all the space as best as possible.  I typically take a lot of time setting up and each time is different.  In the name of efficiency its time to pick a layout and stick with it.



Then I felt like painting, but alas, I was not about to spring for a new canvas.  So what's around the house that I can paint on....



Perfect!


And it even hangs on the wall!





The candelabra I have is more for looks as taper candles make the biggest mess.  So I took all the colored glass candle holders I had with handles and beaded them onto the candelabra as a stand.




Been doodling a lot lately as well.
