late winter ideas

with ideas usually overflowing, it's difficult to decide which path to go down creatively.
maintaining a body of work that will show well and that people will respond to is important.
feedback on ideas - feedback on the artwork - is always there. the challenge is knowing how to filter all of this.
then again, maybe the real challenge for me is just doing the work. getting these ideas onto paper or canvas is a lot like going on a long drive. it's not something you just easily do every day... especially when you have other obligations. the trick is to create the time and the space to make it happen.
for me, this can only happen with the support of my family, friends, and associates.
at the same time, i could have all of that support and then fail to rise to the challenge.
i usually find myself in a spot like this in the later winter. on the verge of some inspiration.
