I found this window in Glen Rock PA last year while on a bike ride.
Question for the day: You turned 69 in January...what does retirement look like?
I will never retire from painting, it is who I am. We have been discussing what our plans are looking like. Being off during Covid gave us a better understanding of what we need. You may have already noticed my show schedule is lighter. I am doing two shows a month. That is really cutting back for us. AND we plan to use the RV while showing and taking a day or two extra to have some fun or rest time before and after the shows. I am hoping to get more bike time in and get the tandem out as often as possible! In about 2-4 years we will downsize the studio and move it to the front two rooms of our main house. Returning the studio back into an apartment rental which it originally was. I am not looking forward to that however the time will come. During Covid I cut back the edition of prints I have been printing. I will continue to do that. The goal is to sell out the editions I currently have in stock. More original paintings and less prints. I will spend more time on commissions and on You Tube videos. Of course this is all predicated on good health as I hit my 70's...and I have NO idea how that happened to fast. So it is the selling and showing that will change but not the painting!
