Oh wow.. I see that I am NOT alone in this journey. I figured that at least one or two artists would know what I am talking about. I too made a move to more easily storable painting surfaces. I use hardboard and paper most of the time, although I must have 50 or so canvas paintings here and there.

Sounds like I would enjoy a visit to your home. I would be wondering around looking at the art for days! lol. Sounds like your wife has found her passion, regardless of whether or not she is making sales. Sometimes I struggle with that. I ask myself "Why am I doing this? Why do I continue to create just to store it away?" Then I will also have those days where I know why I do it and don't give a crap.

I suppose it's all part of the artistic process.. but validation is nice from time to time.

I'll have to head over to your wife's blog and check out what she's been up to.

Thank you for the comment and the assurance I am not alone in this dark cold artistic world. hehe.
