"The moments of greatest frustration, signal breakthroughs in learning and seeing. It's important to stay with it--not abandon the work--but to keep pushing through." This is what I am going through and why my posts contain no new art. I am pushing through. It is hard work.
"Also, we have the importance of making a mess in order to do anything well--we must be willing to do it poorly." For a Virgo, who lives a life of "perfection", this is some of the hardest work of all. Doing something poorly. I usually avoid doing anything I have done poorly. Math. The sewing of clothing. Cutting my own hair. Driving.
Today I am "pushing my house through" and cleaning all the floors and bathrooms, turning the mattress, putting on clean sheets and putting away any piles of things I find. Tomorrow,-- my heart.
is this like the pregnant woman who cleans her house from top to bottom before giving birth?!
ReplyDeleteI also suck at math, sewing clothes and cutting hair. I've only gotten better at driving because I had to. Of course, I adore the sketch!
ReplyDeleteI for one want to run to my studio and make those flowers just as you have drawn them. I Love the two part tulips.
