Getting back to school has been a struggle this week. The students and I have had to get back into the groove again, and that takes some doing!

Finally, this afternoon I felt like I had enough oomph left to spend some time on my painting. It felt great. Although I'm as slow as molasses, this painting will get done if I just keep grabbing a moment here and there to work on it.

Trying to find the balance between not giving enough attention to the house area and letting it get too precious |
It's hard to make myself get started. Funny thing is, after I've been at it for 10 minutes or so, the creative juices begin to flow and I forget that I didn't really feel like it. Even though I'm tired and can't stay at it as long as it would take to finish, I can do something.
Anything, even. Good end to an okay day.
Thanks for stopping by! Alice

This is a very lovely watercolor already - not much, if anything more, needed :) Glad you can find time to do a little even though you're tired. I find the same thing - if I say, I don't feel like it but do it anyway, within 5-10 minutes I've forgotten that I didn't feel like it and I'm in the flow again :) Happy 2016!
A little piece of heaven sent me your blog today. I have missed you and thought about you often in the past year. Your art is so soul satisfying. Your journey has been beautiful. You are an inspiration to me and I thank you. Here's to us in 2016!!!
Thank you, Rhonda! Alice
