yay for productive mondays

art and i have such a love hate relationship.
some days i want to be in the studio for hours.. but other days you cant keep me in there for more than 10 minutes at a time.
right now i am making cups, cups and more cups in ceramics.. just for fun. so i enjoy it. each one is a canvas and sometimes i produce some of the most random things... i dont even know where they come from. which is a great feeling. that to me is what art is about. just playing and see what comes out.. because it comes from somewhere within. maybe youre feeling nostalgic and so that shows up, or really excited and that'll come out with bright and more busy paintings. the handwriting is all you but each one is different because it pulls from deep within the consciousness. well not always.. sometimes you have to do what the teacher asks of you with about 20% of your own input... thats when me and art become a little more distant. when i have to put restrictions on how i do it, and where it stems from... whew you have to glue my butt to the chair to keep it going and get a final piece. i love art when it is pure and is used to help you through the day and keep your spirits lifted. cause honestly when i cant be creative... i get just as distant.
