Economic Situation
We all know how bad the economy is, right? We are being bombarded with negative information constantly these days and I find it difficult to even get myself to the studio let alone pick up a brush. So I kn0w that if I am feeling this way, many others are as well. We have to push through this heavy cloud that is hanging over us and find the sunshine. By doing nothing, nothings happens!! That is a very simple way of looking at it but that’s the basics of it folks.
When, I find myself feeling rather weighted down here is what I do and I suggest you do it too!!
Look through books, ideas start to flow when looking at pictures, if you have an art museum…go there
Play great invigorating music while looking through books, jump up and dance around the room…. who cares who’s watching. If they laugh at us, guess what, they’ll feel better too!!
Clean up your paint area, now that will either motivate you or depress you so be careful. Ha!
But here is the best of all……. get together with a paint friend and go through books and pictures together. Go out for lunch (eating always makes us feel good). Book a time together to paint and that will get you back into it. Smell that paint, feel the brush, watch it happen and voila!
