I've
been struggling lately, too many balls to keep in the air and not
enough incoming funds! Okay, all avenues seem to hit a brick wall
these days. Can't seem to lose the weight I need to lose. No
inspiration to sketch or create...just trying to make a buck and
mostly failing. Bah! HUMBUG. What the hell, I just hate a pity party.
So...
I decided to follow the advice of a wonderfully cheerful Dutch
artist, Koosjekoene, and true to Dutch character, is straight forward
and takes a simple approach. She says when you have no inspiration to
draw, draw what your meals and all you eat on a daily basis. Why not?
I
started yesterday and you know what? It is also an excellent way to
see what you are eating or perhaps eating too much of... and it is
fun! For the few minutes I sketch I don't think about anything else,
my mind relaxes and it helps the soul. And this after just one day.
It
certainly doesn't cure my ills but every little victory counts.
Now,
if I could just win the lottery...
