I'm going through a season of recovering from burn out.
It's a state we'll all have to face at various points in life. Artistically, it can feel like not wanting to draw, or even feeling repulsed by drawing. I did. And then i remembered i can draw that sense of repulsion, that essence of being drained.
And I've been back at my sketchbook making some wonderfully unhinged work. And i always seem to forget that exactly what I'm feeling, as i am, deserves to be on the page.
In case you need to hear some permission, you too can put yourself and your experience exactly as it is on the page. It doesn't have to be coherent with your previous work. It doesn't have to be beautiful or impressive. It simply deserves to be. As you, too, deserve to be. Exactly in the wholeness as you are.
