Rudd I do want to see the 20 process envelope!! Please send me one.<br/>
I have trouble getting art done quickly enough... I over think it maybe. Or maybe I need to make more copies, build some art in reserve... I'm a full time office dweller. I make my art on the weekends. Limited output. Or maybe I'm lazy. Could be arting now......

<p>I need 6 hours of quality crafting time with no background noise from the tv and lurkers preferably in the daytime.</p>
<p>Right now I'm stuck in the kitchen table where's too much noise I heard listening to Bach helps with creativity and relaxation.</p>
<p>If I don't get do any crafting or mailart I get extremely stressed. Wish I had my own studio or any spare room.</p>
<p>Since the weather has been nice this Summer I'll work outside in the garden.</p>

I don't really have a schedule but I am an artist full time. I don't really separate mail art from the rest of the art I do.

<p>I have a longish commute to work every day (45 min in each direction) and I try to use that time to work on art. It limits the kind of work I can do (mostly drawing... nothing involving scissors or glue) but it means that I work on my hand eye coordination all the time. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>As for when I'm in the studio, the only constraint that I have for my working conditions is I need a good block of time (min 3 hrs) because otherwise I don't have enough time to really focus on anything. </p>

<p>Hi Karen,</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I try to make art every day. However, with my health problems, that does not always happen. On a good day I will spend up to two hours working on my art. Some days I don't do anything artsy at all. I always make sure to devote Sunday afternoons to art, as well.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Love,</p>
<p>Erica</p>

In the past, my favorite ritual has been to put on a pot of aromatic tea, whatever music I'm into at the time, jazz, classical or whatever and turn off the phone....I get lost for hours. Sometimes I add incense to the ritutal other times a fragrance would be just too much.
