inspiration overload

I'm on inspiration overload. If you're a regular visitor to my galleries, you'll understand why.

First it was "Facing Up To My Face at 65" in August. Then "Seeing the City Through Edward Hopper's Eyes" in September. That was followed in October and November by "Edward Hopper Visits My Home." Next came the all-consuming "Dualities" in December, a series that I suspect I'll be working on till I die. And finally the "Winter Nudes," which I just started last Saturday. In the middle of all this, I spent time and energy deciding which of my photos to enter in the 2007 Black and White Spider Awards competition. On Thursday I worked for hours preparing and printing two of my Winter Nudes photos for submission to a juried exhibit called the "Body Eclectic" that will be opening next week at a Detroit-area art gallery, and so far I've printed out 31 of my Dualities to submit to a national photography magazine. I still need to fine-tune my photo files and write a bio and introduction to the portfolio before that project is completed. And every day since January 1, 2007 I've been a faithful Photo-a-Day poster here on PBase.

When I see it all laid out like that, it makes perfect sense why I'm on inspiration overload! Maybe it's time to slow down a bit. I wonder if I can?
