Art therapy today was difficult at first. I started a totally different painting. Got discouraged on how it was turning out so I put it aside. Started a new one. Same thing happens there. So I decide I will just paint over both canvases with black and call it a morning. Then the black paint dumps on my desk and splatters all over my easel onto a few other things ...and my robe...yes I still had my robe on! At the same time my sister is repeat texting me on what I assume is needing my help! AHHHH. I screamed for a bit. Then watch a Willowing's Inner Child video. How can you be in a bad mood after that?! So I ended up creating this after gaining some much needed inspiration. I had to use acrylic as my water color crayons are "in the mail". I was frustrated probably on the first 90% of this. Layering in acrylics they have a saying...ugly phases. I am getting used to these ugly phases and working past it. I had to leave and comeback to this probably 4 times throughout the day. It took me 4 hours I think. I am getting better with my accepting the time it takes to paint larger.
