Only in the shop for a quick sec...this Crown Cork & Seal converted coffee table is sold and off to its new home. Great for extra storage with the removable lid.

This was us yesterday.
A state of mind that has been crucial to me since becoming a mother is recognizing that my daughter (and little one to be) are not disruptions to my art practice. My acts of mothering are not combative with my acts of artistry, or visa versa. I don’t find her presence, or babbling, or 10 second attention span (although she was into those stickers yesterday for a good 25mins and I was impressed) to be annoying. This will sound so hippie, but I just let the two flow together.
The biggest battle is finding resources - residencies that have the same mindset as me, grants that go specifically to parent-Artists, etc. They exist, but they’re few in number so therefore very competitive.
I’m dreaming up some plans on starting a studio/childcare collective of 5 or so Mother Artists, along with “outline kits” for others to start the same thing in their hometowns. I’ve had it in my mind since E. was born, and it’s about time I gave it some juice - because let’s admit, there’s just got to be more resources.

After 4 long months out of the studio, I’m super stoked that I’ll be moving back into this space come November!
Until then, come by the building this coming weekend for Baltimore’s annual studio tour and see works by @emmechilds who subletted my space over the summer! You can see work by my studio mates @calebkortokrax and @jessihardesty, and then even swing upstairs to see paintings by @katiepumphreyart!
You’re lame if you don’t .

When you just need to lay out a piece of scrap canvas along with your tools and plan your next move.
[E. also insisted on wearing her “fancy shoes” to the studio ♀️ let ‘em express themselves.]
