Gotta love the Holidays, they fill your life with so many things to do that routine becomes a foggy memory.  I'm working my way through holiday parties, kids on winter brake, friends visiting, cooking, playing, and house-chores. In the meanwhile I'm so looking forward to the new year. So many ideas in my head that want to come to life!  Hope this new year has longer days, so I can fit them all.  :) Hey, I just found my new year's resolution: getting better at time management, finding the time for all I need/want to do, and try to do my best always. In the meanwhile, Happy Holidays to all!  And may the New Year bring plenty of Love, Joy, and Health in each household.

I just came back from a family vacation, eight wonderful days in Riviera Maya, Mexico. Beach, sun, food, drinks.  Ahhhh, the life!  Needless to say no time to paint. I didn't even pretend I was going to, in fact I just brought a sketch pad and pencils. Turns out it has been a week full of fun and activities, and my art tools did not make it out of the hotel room. However, while waiting at the airports, I kept myself entertained making quick sketches of few fellow passengers. On the plane I found some interesting images on the Airline's magazine, and sketched those too.  :) I loved making use of that otherwise boring time at the airport and plane!  PS: I brought coloring and writing activities for my kids too, which kept them busy scribbling, so they did not drive daddy crazy. :)
