Acoustic Ceiling Tile...and me.

Here is a new painting. Acrylic on canvas, 11x14

I was getting my hair cut yesterday and while I was getting my color washed out,  I started to think. An idea came to me. A grandiose idea..something I have thought about before, but it now seems like something that is actually possible. It's all this new thinking I've been doing...

I sat there for a good 5 minutes, eyes locked on a vent that was in the ceiling above my wash station. What about this? What about that? What about my contract? It's too big..it's will take forever..what if no one likes it? These thoughts come and go all the time, I think that it is totally natural to have those feelings.. the problem was that while I was doing all this thinking, my hairdresser was talking to me. Oops. I was totally engrossed.

I'm thinking. Thinking about myself and what I want from myself. The "Myself Project" is alive and well and it feels good. I know this seems like a huge mess of mumbo jumbo at the moment..and it does to me too..but I need to get to where I am going, as soon as I figure out where, I will let you know for sure.

In the meantime, please enjoy my art.

PS- anyone want to hear this mumbo jumbo in person? I am lucky enough to be speaking here soon.

the majority of the time i am the hairdresser i just want to think and be quiet. sometimes i'm lucky and other times not so much. i like that you are sharing your thoughts with us. i am reflecting on some questions myself that are not easy to answer, but vital to go down the
best path.

love the contrast of the brown, black, and white in the painting.

Julie, mess is what life is about, but you know that already. Here's what I love: I love that you meditated while at the stylist. I find that one of the most fertile places for mind-spection.

I like this piece. If that's what happens when your color gets washed out, keep it up.

p.s. heheh. I said 'fertile'.

Zoning out while at the hairdresser's....hmmm....never had that problem. On my yoga mat...but never at the hairdresser's. Inspiration comes in the least expected places!!!

I'd love to come to Ink Pad and hear you all...and take Seth's class...but not this time....enjoy! I'm sure it will be a blast!!!
