I've been so focused on writing for the past few years. I'm finally bringing out my watercolors and brushes. It's not the only thing I've put aside until I can finish the books I'm writing. I've also put my music on hold. Hosting and singing the Singers' Session Jam at Zinc Bar for the last four years, every week, became too much. Sometimes we gotta hit one thing at a time. Because, sometimes, there is too much of a good thing.
I'll get back to singing and writing tunes. It's a part of who I am. I practice my vocal exercises every day, and I try and paint on the weekends. When my kids (teens) allow me have the apartment for a few hours. Oh, and yes, I need a studio. If you know of one in NYC, that's not too pricey, please leave a comment.
I really thought I'd have fresh paintings to hand out for Xmas. If I find a decent printer I may have prints before the end of the year.

Wow, fantastic! I love being creative, but art is just not my thing. You're so talented!
You're so wonderfully kind, Elana. Thank you!
