Have some fun - with life, with the day, with art
Life is not drudgery That is and old belief. Let go of it. We are on an adventure, a journey. Events will come to pass that we cannot now fathom.
Replace heaviness and weariness of spirit with joy. Surround yourself with people and things that bring lightness of spirit.
Become sensitive to lightness of spirit.
The journey can be an exciting adventure. Let yourself enjoy it!
A lot of times we worry so much about our responsibilities as artists that we forget to have fun. A couple of weeks ago I was very worried about learning new techniques. I also took a beautiful plain air work shop. I was taking myself very serious, but I was forgetting to have fun. I was feeling a little frustrated, so I decided this week I was going to have some serious fun. I started playing with my canvas with no particular goal and started painting. I called them fun exercises. I regained my confidence! And I also have had calls about galleries that need my paintings. It seem as if things started to flow when I stopped worrying! Melody Beattie
