Finally, after months of indecision, brooding and lethargy I finished a painting that was started last fall. It feels very good to finish and I actually like the results. It is the third in the sunflower theme consisting of two mixed media paintings and one linocut. There are orchids blooming in my living room and blank canvases in the basement - I feel an orchid series coming on!
It seems like I always have bouts of creativity that come in fits and starts - that's just the way I am and I've decided not to worry but just accept it. Sometimes I actually lay awake at night worrying about what I'm doing wrong or what I should be painting to be more successful in the sales department. I'm giving myself a lecture here - Just Do It - whatever 'it' is at that moment and who cares if anyone else likes it. As long as I'm happy and I see that my artwork is improving, that's all that really matters. That's my story and I'm sticking with it!
