Intentions

Maybe it's the new year. Maybe I'm frustrated. Maybe the world is going to end. I don't know. All I can say is that chefs cook, writers write, gardeners tend the soil and, if I call myself an artist, I must make art. And I haven't. A few pieces here and there, but I've never dedicated the time and energy into creating as much as I can. I want to. I think I have some things to say, and some interesting ways to express myself.  But I allow myself to get caught up in the mundane of everyday existence. There's always laundry to do, pets that need attention, dishes to wash, piddly little projects that leave me tired and uninspired.

So the whole point of this project is to find a way to immerse myself in my own creativity. To be loyal to my own expression. First.
