I didn't want to get out of my warm cozy bed. It was one of those days when things seem overwhelming and I had a bit of a case of the blues. I just didn't feel like working on my art. Blame it on the moon.
Gently I enticed myself out of bed and got moving. I made a nurturing cup of tension tamer tea and put on my favorite internet radio show. Then I approached my drawing
.
Things seemed to get better as let myself flow with it. I made lines, dabbed pan pastel then erased and tweaked my work. The blood started pumping. As I strung the pieces together I felt more together.
This isn't a pull yourself up by your bootstraps approach but a gentle coaxing. One foot in front of the other instead overwhelming to do list. The actual doing of the work was healing. And when I looked up the sun was out and bright and I felt the same way too.
