Some simple markmaking/doodling to calm and clear my mind. Nothing fancy, just taking the pencil for a walk on the page

'Send in the Clowns'

'She was knee deep in it now, there was no going back'

There was kind of a tarot / divination card feel about her when I'd finished.

What was she trying to say? New beginnings, darling, keep going, get stuck in, dig deep, feel the depth, drink deeply from it, let it fill and sustain you.

The odd thing she seems to be carrying was a flower whenI stuck it down, an orchid of some kind but it just looks a bit weird, more embryonic. In my dreams an embryo, children or pregnancy always symbolise a creative project.

What is she telling me?

Keep going and carry that precious beginning/ idea forward with you.

I hear you.

5x7 inches on seriously solid Strathmore paper.

Now listed in my Etsy shop
