In the long run

WARNING: this is going to be some rambling..... 

While I'm painting I have the voices on each shoulder: The evil one whispering "Why are you doing this? Those are weird. What's the point" & the other, quieter " This is fun.... Ooh, what if...  

I AM trying to remind myself that now is the time to: observe, gather, incubate, listen to what I'm drawn to, trust, & enjoy the process.  blah blah blah... If I spend just an hr each day working on this, someday when I grow up I will be a woodblock/screen printing, fabric designing, fabulous artist, & in the long run I will be a stronger artist from these daily "workouts" :) but, thanks for listening!
