On Maternity Leave, Officially
Cedar Lee October 2nd, 2009
Over the past month I’ve successfully gotten a couple dozen paintings prepared, delivered, and shipped out to their various new homes and up onto art gallery walls to be displayed and sold! As of a few days ago, I’ve officially declared that my maternity leave has begun.
This photo of me was taken a couple of weeks ago, at about 37 weeks pregnant with my first child:
At that point I was still climbing trees. Now, not so much! My estimated due date is now fast approaching, and I’ve shifted my focus inward for the time being. You can expect things to get quiet around here for awhile, but I’ll check in when I can.
I plan to get back to work in the studio in January and start releasing new works again by February. I won’t be taking on any new commissioned work until February.
Looking ahead to 2010, my artistic efforts next year will be focused on further developing several ongoing series’:
Sunflower Series
Lotus Series
Looking Up Series
Cosmic Dance Series
For the past 9 months, the same creative energy I put into my work has also been going into the creation of a new baby. Now that same energy will form the start of a new family. It is a never-ending process of growth. Please keep me in your thoughts as I embark on this adventure!
