For various reasons, work and personal, I've developed something of a block, artistically. I have accomplished little things of late but nothing particularly exciting. I have been struggling to find something positive to say here.
So, as is my wont, when I get stuck, I return to The Artist's Way. A book on working through the rough patches of an artistic life. There are lots of suggestions and exercises in the book. Basically, I recommend it to you.
My first step is usually to return to journalling. Somehow, once I get the stuff out of my head, my dilemma comes to the surface. Part of this comes from being an introvert in a household of six people. I can't think through the words floating in the air.
Next step? Talking to my support network. Which is what I'm going to do now.
I close with a picture of a random work of gourd art.
More on this to follow.
