Now that retailing is wrapped I can hardly wait to get into the creative space that is the winter months for me. I cleaned my tables and found a plate of forgotten dried gelatin pieces under all the papers, so I felt like I got a head start. I decided not to get out the two totes of Xmas decorations this year though I ended up buying some new ones so I would have something pretty to look at. It takes so long to undecorate and get stuff back up in the attic I thought I would skip it and get to work faster.
I don't have a focus yet but am thinking about aqua, avocado and purple and gold, my recent palette it seems. Something floral for pleasure, but with a bite. I have to go see Wicked and might do something related to it, though only slightly related.
We've talked a bit about the theme and ideas for the performance. It turns out Hamilton will be in town in March so it might be fun to do something obliquely political. Goodness knows there will be plenty of material although most of it will not be funny. It's good to laugh though. It's necessary and a big function of creativity, bringing humor to life's vicissitudes.
I'm excited to play. I have a few serious projects that are not as fun, but I'm interested in doing them, so my life will be full. That's something good to fondle and hope for.
