Sitting in my shed


ree

I’m sitting out here on a full moon and overwhelmed by how much is around me. I had shelves built to store paintings and its not enough and I’m slightly blown away at how much there is. All of it came in bursts, outward projections of moments that were captured during a hard time in my life. Now I am surrounded by it all and I am at a bit of a loss at how much emotion and content is collected in one space.

I’ve definitely crossed over to the next phase of needing to get rid of it. I can’t be surrounded by all of this . . . it feels too much. All of these memories and feelings staring back at me . . . Who knew that your own work could make you feel so lonely?

a picture says so much

#1 

What cannot be cured, must be endured.  In Michigan that means the weather.  Get outside, trust me, it does make it better.

Instead of texting, meet up with a friend.  If that's not possible, make a phone call.  Voices are amazingly comforting.

 

#3

Find your humor.  You need it in life.
