This huge painting took me ages.  I have felt tired and uninspired as of late. Like I have lost my magic or something. I think that I have been using my head  to create art and forgetting about my heart.

That is  very dangerous.

I have to lead with my heart.

Quiet my thoughts.

Hush those voices.

I have to trust that whatever I create, when I am in the zone , is what I should be creating. Good or bad, happy or sad, full of colour or completely devoid. These are just NOT decisions that my BRAIN needs to be making. I must paint with my heart.

So bare with me. As I nourish my heart,

my soul,

my muse,

my divine inspiration.

These things truly DO have be tended to on a regular basis.
