Circus Girl In Progress…
So here is another Circus Girl painting, I am trying to coax myself back to the canvas. This break has been too long and not helpful. I am not feeling inspired. I know that Picasso was right when he said he often found inspiration while working but lately when I have tried to start a painting my eyes get heavy and my arm feels like a wet noodle. I instantly feel like crawling under my duvet and going for a long slumber. ARGGGG. I hate that. I wonder why I have to be almost possessed with inspiration and unable to stop even if I want to (or my family wants me to) or a total mindless, uncreative slug. Hmmmm? As my grade nine English teacher used to say ‘ponder, ponder, ponder’.
Anyway, I think I need a huge dress up photo shoot with the girls.
And yes (DAD), I know that I really need to finish writing Circus Girl. She talked to me today, she said “Hurry, I am growing up …look at how I am looking at you.” She also said ” I love all my fans”( see how she is smiling at you?)
This is a 4″x6″ mixed media painting on canvas. I thought you might find it interesting to see the progress of a painting.
