Wonderful to be back in the studio even if I am a bit scattered. #manystyles #tryingtofocus #nancycarlsonstudios (at Loring Corners) https://www.instagram.com/p/COl0vb2nRl2/?igshid=cjhwlpo5inp

Trying to clean and organize the studio with my 3-year-old “helper” so needless to say it’s not going well... But we’ve uncovered this experiment from a while ago and I may have visions of working on him in the near future., so there’s that. . This guy is on a thick, heavy, old oak chunk with a missing knothole - which just adds to all the exciting textural and dimensional options to be had here. So we will see, when this kid gets off me, someday... 🙄 . 🔥🎨🤷‍♀️⚜️🤷‍♀️🎨🔥 . . . . . . #momartist #texturetuesday #texturelove #tryingtofocus #tryingtoorganize #oldisnewagain #wipart #quarantineartclub #encausticpainting #encaustic #encausticart #encausticartist #stlwaxworks #leahmerriman #waxart #stlartist #stlart #stlouisartist #stlouisart #texturedpainting #keepcreating #staycreative #arteveryday #sayyestoartstl #sayyestoart #keepingbusy #foundart #stlcreatives #inmystudio #beautifulmess (at St. Louis Wax Works) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-aJK-hHH6M/?igshid=6hzf7g2ewx9u

Got up hours before the sun to get my work in so that I can go play with the dogs in the afternoon. Jasper and Sinka are pretty patient with us working full time - with just periodic pleading eyes. #tryingtofocus #stoplookingatmelikethat 😋 . . . #vanagonwolfpack #searchingfor75° #searchingfor25° #runwild #vanlife #mydogismy #officemate #ruffwear #acana #snowdoglife #vandog #getoutdoors #aframe #aframecabin #cabinlife #interiordesign #howwedwell #lovehowyoulive #cozycabin #aframeofmind #cabinfolk #cabinvibes #cabin #tinyhouse #smallhouse #fixerupper #escapethecity #husky #malamute (at McCall, Idaho) https://www.instagram.com/p/BrX404KHrku/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=12hznn88c3lrs

My computer as I try to navigate this stupid paper. And that’s not including all the open tabs in chrome I have for websites I’m citing. #howareyouspendingyourspringbreak #writingpapers #doinghomework #catchinguponmymasters #tryingtomakesenseofitall #notgivingup #tryingtofocus #uncomastersprogram #unco #bears

What up, Wednesday

It's so pretty outside and this is what I'm doing. 😤#phdstudent #tryingtofocus (at Live Oak Public Libraries)
