07 Jun Grateful
I was in the studio painting last night. The kids were asleep, house was quiet…the only time all day. I looked down and the first thing I read, written by Laura McKowen was this: “Remember when you wanted what you currently have.”
Yes. This. I remember.
I had cleaned my studio last week and found a painting I did 10 years ago and it was almost painful to look at. I was even like wow I had balls to put this on the internet.
It’s good (albeit HARD) to be reminded where we come from…naivety and all.
The seeds of what I am doing now were there…imperfect scrawled lines derived from a botanical composition. So much changes, but, then again, it stays the same.
Remember when you wanted what you currently have.
This applies to all of it…giving up drinking, my children, husband, art. I might get this tattooed on my body.
What are you grateful for? Have you looked at your old art lately? Do it.
