i've been on a art break. as in not making art, not in my journal, not for trades and swaps and all that other stuff. i honestly didn't make it a conscious choice in the beginning, i had just finished my summer class and then i got hooked on a tv show called Veronica Mars. i borrowed the dvds from the library and had a marathon watching all three seasons. in truth, i was a couch potato.
i think i have been making art non-stop these past few years, with some little breaks in between. but consistently i would make something nearly everyday. sometimes, we all need a break from something.
i took a break and now i'm happily back to art making.
Yay! Yes, we all need a break sometimes, and couch potatoing is great for that LOL. For me it was 5 seasons of Babylon early last spring. Here's to coming back refreshed and ready to Art :D I love your art and hope you never stop for too long a break!
ReplyDeleteBreaks are so important. I'm on one now from the verbal side of my brain. That way I'll be ready for graduate school in August!
ReplyDeleteI received my postcard yesterday and love it. Thank you so much. You inspired me to go buy some inks and experiment with them and with altering photographs. I read about doing that on one of your earlier posts. Have you ever considered teaching or do you already?

hello there! I just got your letter, and what a sight to behold. Every time I try my hand at collages, it ends up looking so disorganized and haphazard; so it was a delight to receive your envelope, I certainly needed some inspiration. Reply to follow soon :-)
ReplyDeleteI agree, you know what they say..all work and no play -- breaks should also be on the priority list sometimes, so you can come back refreshed and better than ever!
