Amateur dramatics

It's that time of year again, where I paint up the sets for the local productions. The current play is Move Over Mrs Markham, and although the sets are less detailed than the last I painted, the disruption to my work schedule invariably throws my brain into a bit of a tailspin. I'm managing a little time in the studio while all this is going on, but the project most suffering from my lack of attention is the children's book I'm illustrating for a local author, which requires hours of solid focus per day. The play runs its course this week and I'll be glad to get back to a more solid "Jen Dixon" schedule.
