My mom called to say, “You haven’t painted today.” Thanks for the reminder mom.
Yesterday I didn’t feel like it but I grabbed my sketchbook anyway. I didn’t want to break my streak. I grabbed a magazine and inspired by the feathers on the cover, started drawing. One night this week I even got out of bed when I realized I’d forgotten to draw! I know how quickly one skipped day can become two or three or more.
Even when I’m reluctant to start drawing or painting once I get started the switch flips and I’m into it.

That’s exactly what I’m finding with this ‘face a day may’ thing that I’m doing….some days it’s just SO HARD to get around to doing it, and I WILL put it off to the end of the day, when I’m tired…. but, once I start…..no problem. 20 days in a row….WELL DONE! Keep up the good work, Eileen, I really like how you did that feather duster!
Thanks Hilda. I know one issue is that I put everything ahead of it. First I have to do this and then that. I keep saying I’ll have a day when I make it the first priority. But those are rare. Good luck with your faces!
How true that is, Eileen – the rest of life just keeps getting in the way – Well, we mustn’t let it!!!
