I have embarked on self discovery through my creative side. I have always loved to draw but somehow felt that "art has passed me by". I want to capture the essense of that artist that is within me and see what I can become.

The Week ahead 30/8 -5/9...what's in store
I said to Bryce yesterday that for me a whole weekend of sketching was almost too much. Too much concentration. Too much focus. OK if it's just the art but when it's also meeting new people and connecting with them you either put your energy in one or the other. I love meeting new people and talking about that shared interest of art. I love drawing. The latter I can do by myself but then it's hard to get up close and personal with your subject matter, especially if it's people studies. Certainly there was a colourful bunch of people at Balmoral Beach and an abundance of subject matter. And then of course, there's always the water. Not much is planned art-wise for me this week, but I will work on Julia Cameron's book "The Artist's Way". Bryce too is working on it. We are embarking on the 12 week program together to "unblock" the obstacles that are preventing us from living up to our true potential. This book comes highly recommended by those who have read it. Every morning I have to embak on what is known as "The Morning Pages" - essentially 3 pages of writing to "loosen up" and get you Headed in the right Direction! So open the book and write I will:)
