Why can’t I be a little more like them?
I’ve been missing this little space of late, I really have. I know everyone is busy, some prople are searching for new homes, some are involved in brilliant projects, some are busy updating their shops with wonderful new creations, and some are just too busy for words. However, all of these inspiring souls seem to be able to keep up with the penning of blog posts and visiting chums. I, on the other hand, drop my blogging bundle when deadlines are pressing and there’s too much to do in any one day.
Why can’t I be a little more like them?
These new abode paintings are of abandoned vacation homes from the Pod City of San Zhi in Taiwan.
Medium: watercolour and pencil on Fabriano 640gsm traditional white paper

Very nifty pods! Kinda remind me of the green housing units a guy in Freeport Maine created (called Green Pod - unfortunately no website yet).
I understand how the blog suffers when you get busy - I'm only now really just catching up with my fav bloggers (I didn't know that Shari was moving until today!) You are not alone!
Have a great weekend!
