My work seems to have different phases. Last week was full of wild creativity! I browsed pages and pages of magazines with scissors in hand, blasted through bins of children’s books, and treasure hunted for color combinations in just about anything that came into view. If you could have seen into my brain you would have been scared. hahaha!
This week the tide has turned. My days will be spent without any other human beings in sight and only a sleeping puppy or two at my feet. It will be this way until my ideas are sketched, inked in, scanned, and colored. For me it means many quiet solitary days. Someone singing on the radio or a person talking on the television might scatter my thoughts like a syiff wind blowing a newly finished puzzle off a card table into a million pieces!
I don’t mind quiet days. In fact, when life gets crazy hectic I often retreat to this quiet place. It’s a source of strength to sit with my little cartoons that smile up at me. Call that crazy if you’d like … but its my little part of the world.
