August

I keep hearing the good old "I can't believe it's August" phrase being fired about all over the place. I'm the same. But I think I say that about every month.

But, August is my birthday month, so it gets me thinking and planning and feeling totally optimistic. I'm brilliant at planning a comletely impossible art timeline for myself, but it's always good to have things to look forward to. I just try not to focus on all the things that don't get ticked off my ridiculous list.

Not to mention, August is the last month of Winter - my absolute favourite season, especially in the mornings. I like the fog and the crispy air, and I like looking out at our yard and seeing the icy grass all lit up by the sunrise. And since I've finally jumped on the iPhone train, I've found it nice and easy to snap my favourite Winter moments:

If I could take the whole of Winter off to just paint I'd be perfectly happy! Even if the temperature drops do cause the odd artwork disaster, something which I will document tomorrow!
