RESET SUNDAY Never underestimate the benefits of a good nap! Or a good night’s sleep! 😀 Bluer Still and Blue Still There are times when you KNOW you’re spinning your wheels! I mean, the anxiety and failures and plans are weighing you down. Take a break, distract yourself or better, put your head down to allow time between your confusion and #nextsteps #blue #bluestill #bluerstill #reset #selfreflection #anxiety #confusion (at Link in Bio) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJB9tKFHYJa/?igshid=3dhv50bd1xle

SOARING WEDNESDAYS What happens when the “wind beneath your wings” fades? What do you do when it’s Wednesday (Thursday, Friday, Saturday...you get the picture) and you are hardly soaring? I mean some days you’re barely crawling through the day, not to mention getting over the hump! I remember a LONG time ago, staring at the clock while sitting at my part time job. Getting off at 9:00 pm, 19 years old??? I WANTED TO FLYYYYY! But at 8:25, against my best interest, I stared at the click trying to make it move. You know it didn’t. Some days, just put one foot in front of the other... #Soaring #humpday #struggle #push https://www.instagram.com/p/CI4AtGeHtC_/?igshid=dhiiurh95vgu

Rough Sketch I grew up with the idea of being an artist. Observed other children trying to draw cars and tried it (though I really wanted to draw people, horses and buildings). It wasn’t until I was in high school that I got practical instruction and developed both the hand and eye to render effectively. But the drawings above aren’t from childhood, not even from young adult years. They are from approximately 17 years ago; they were my attempts at trying to relight the fire. And they were very rough and oh so discouraging! But I kept going; filled that sketch book with more rough drafts. And really it wasn’t until my wife suggested I try to draw or paint a picture of my father on his way to his land in Mississippi, that any excellence took place. No “kindling for the wood” took place until 2009. And there have been plenty of stops and starts since! Keep going. Don’t let lack of skill, a dead end job or failed marriage prevent you. GO!!! Each attempt is a step in the direction of your dreams. #drive #ambition #disappointment #failures #success #striving https://www.instagram.com/p/CIylXxGH9S1/?igshid=14691f3fkti8v

RESET SUNDAYS WHEWWWW!!! What a week! A picture of me about to pass out would be appropriate right about now, but I choose to focus my attention on the desired outcome. And sometimes you need to simply close your eyes and focus on your heart’s desire. #reset #sundayselfreflections #selfreflection https://www.instagram.com/p/CIwryIpHeG6/?igshid=go3hspr6g35p

I don’t know about other artists - especially those who work regular 9-5 jobs - but I have to squeeze in MINUTES to get this work. So progress is slow. But like everything else in life, you take what you’re given and make it work. Got to admit, I had concerns about this one; it lacked the brightness I like to do. But I hit it with a couple minutes between errands and tasks...sheesh! Maybe another minute tonight... https://www.instagram.com/p/CIuHKncH35E/?igshid=ngeffccx8mjb

Bluer Still. Celebrating, if you will the darkness of soul, the times when you question (DOUBT) your very existence. The times when “a way out” seems like a solution for everyone but you... Been there; but sit in it, let the lessons learned in the dark help you cherish the sunny days. #solitude #bluestill #bluerstill #soulreflection Link in bio. https://www.instagram.com/p/CHYtwPbn3ap/?igshid=4a09pr0e50he

“Misty” is officially marked COMPLETE! I had to add rain drops; what’s a dreary, bundle-up-under-a-blanket kind of day without clouds, fog and a light rainfall? #raindrops #cozy #misty #cloudysky https://www.instagram.com/p/CG6LWBDn8B2/?igshid=yunwvfqxc2wz

“Misty...” when work is in progress, a title or theme usually comes as it develops. Not this one...I looked and looked and couldn’t get over the murky, near haunting sense of it. So we’re going with “Misty.” #darknight #misty #streams #painting https://www.instagram.com/p/CG54oI-nJE_/?igshid=fulmigdiwxha

“Desert Star,” revisited. Thought I could put a signature on this, post it on my site and move on...not so. Given it a title (see the blog entry on my site: What’s in a Name) and that should’ve been it. Nope! So back to the tool shed. https://www.instagram.com/p/CG51oapH-aM/?igshid=wo28qtkzf1vn

“Ugly Processes...” I know I don’t like them. Like, having to do “software development” when I’m really a Quality Assurance Tester.” Or not dressing a certain way because I don’t have the money. But most of the time, you have to step, even “lean into” the “ugly...” go with it, maybe not lovingly, but appreciating the process. The ugly; go through it, let it sit and sit with it... #process #progress #selfdiscovery #uncomfortable https://www.instagram.com/p/CGWKmWhH1x5/?igshid=6vv0wch7t2yo

The water doesn’t stop flowing...have you ever considered that a stream or river continues to flow? That it’s base: rocks, soil, remains in place, but it is always being changed ever so slightly? #sunrise #nature #streamsofwater #streamsofthought #everchanging https://www.instagram.com/p/CGTnkXYnXLs/?igshid=1q9b7mhrj26xq

“Impact,” the start of my exploration of “Water and Rocks.” Somewhere, beneath the surface or simply away from prying eyes, water, rocks and heat is happening! Soon to go up on the site but available for purchase if you DM me. #catalyst #wellwater #rocks #art #abstractexpressionism https://www.instagram.com/p/CGStKaCHA-k/?igshid=jbb36tsqpl1k
