The sketch books are used for so many things.
But then there is The Other Paper. This piece is made up of scraps remaining from cutting out Hearts from OTHER papers. So many scraps....
Yesterday I wasted and/or used well two hours gluing scraps from other doings to an oblong sheet of orange card stock. This is the result:
It was during a work shift at American Gothic Antiques - so I could have been doing "nothing." Or drawing thumbnail sketches for Serious Projects. But I did this.
A trusted friend I showed this to thinks it is a finished piece of art. I have no idea.
But it was fun to play with. And it got brain focused and in The Flow. This cannot be be discounted. many of our brains feel much better while in Flow. When time goes away. When the focus in on NOW. When many small decisions and choices create a Something and the back and forth in the skull is relaxed and "easy."
This piece of papers is worth the doing just for that!
On to a day that won't be quite as pleasant. Tech and business stuff. Then, maybe Art and Gardening.
On to a twenty minute walk along the river.
We all have our priorities. Good luck with your day - every day!
Fare-thee-well,
Sue
