An Itch to Sketch...

This is a journal after all, so it is okay to register how difficult it has been to find time to paint the last couple of weeks. Between the extended workload of my daytime job and the preparations for the birth of our first child, time has been scarce. Even the late night sketches have become rare, and I'm itching to draw and paint... I did manage to do a very quick study late the other night, I should title it something like "Moving out..." or "You are making a big mistake."
