Thanks for the vote of confidence Michele and Steven! Your responses are much appreciated. Your validation, Michele was hungrily accepted!!!! Your suggestion, Steven, to go back to drawing what I know I can draw is one I will do. Part of my problem is that I MISS drawing.
Ah, you've quoted one of my favorite lecturers and authors. I have about three or four Thomas Moore lectures on tape and have read his book Care of the Soul. But it has been a few years. Just reading your excerpt pulled so much out of the old cobwebs. I think his greatest lesson is relative to the admonition to "embrace our shadow side", live the process, find the soul in the emptiness. I find great comfort in your excerpt and your own words. I have printed this out to keep and reread when I get home tonight.
I am going on a weekend getaway with my five sisters and this week I was putting pressure on myself to "do something" knowing that I would not be able to work in my studio this the third weekend in a row. So, the pressure is off, I think I'll try to "incorporate this stoppage into my [our] experience and into my [our] life" and relax!
I appreciate the time you took to transcribe so much. It was serendipitous that you would think of Thomas Moore, who has already greatly influenced me . . .
Thank You!
