Day 19 or 5.27.25 Hang on!

I thought a lot about what I posted for the past few posts. I just want to say, attempts that come out so-so are all part of my process. I might look back on the last few drawings and have new ideas about them, but I also might not. I don’t consider them really done, but I need more time to look at them to figure out what they are asking for to feel grown up.

I decided I needed to change up the rhythm of what I’m doing. Today I went back to using color. And animals. And Circles/ Pine Pollen. Painting is a little like spell making. When it works out, it’s pure magic. When it’s so-so, it’s just art supplies. I’m a little frustrated by my last few attempts.

And because art doesn’t happen in a vacuum. I’m also frustrated that my garden groundhog has eaten all of my echinacea plants. I’m frustrated that I don’t have rabbits in my yard this year. I’m frustrated that time seems to evaporate and the speed of daffodils to tulips to bluebells to lily of the valley to lilac is so fast!

This May Arts Marathon has been really fun in making me learn about efficiency and posting. This time is also evaporating fast! But in the spirit of spaciousness, I’m likely to continue this blog…not every day but some times through the future.

Hang on!
