It often takes a physical impairment to slow me down and make me look at what I am doing with my life. I got in a car accident on the 22nd of June and it has resulted in a lot of pain and exhaustion, thus slowing down. I have been thinking about my art a lot in this time. I put these structures and boundaries around my art that I can only do these things or this book and then I get overwhelmed and discouraged and do no art at all. I was thinking today that I just need to slow down and play again with my art. I did a couple of one minute sketches. The one minute sketch comes from the book - Art Escapes- which my house mate Susan Cepin gave me years ago. So, I decided to do this little collage to remind myself to be more playful and just have fun with my art because that is what it is all about anyway.

Yay! Glad to see art on your blog again. I like how the fun tumbling triangle blocks contrast with the seriousness of the barren tree.
Thanks Kelsea. I am going to try not to freak out this time and abandon everything.
