and a cow...


Art...kind of


Well, I'm surprised to find myself back here posting for a second time. It must be the beginning of the new year that has inspired me to write something.


2009 is the year of my mid-life crisis. I have a plan for this (no spontaneous purchasing of flashy cars for me). It involves being more creative, finding a more satisfying job, getting fit, learning to drive - again, and of course the previously mentioned tattoo.


I decided to ease back into the art/creativity gently. Start small I thought. So I painted a couple of canvases for my one year old nephew who, lets face it, isn't going to be much of a critic.


So, one frog and one cow, looking nothing like nature designed them to look. But they're bright and he likes them so I'm happy with them too. And it felt really good to be doing something creative again. Perhaps I can make myself actually write something after this. Who knows.
