Artists occasionally find themselves in a blank period when no art can happen for various reasons. Sometimes we get stuck and just can’t do any work. When that happens, it is very hard to get going again. It is so easy to not go to the studio if each visit there results in nothing happening. Sometimes circumstances simply make everything come to a halt. That is what happened to me this winter when I slipped and fell on black ice—that is, an invisible patch of ice in an otherwise clear street that is most dangerous as far as falling is concerned.
I have not had a chance to write anything for a long time. The past four months have been a blur, but I am now back to work drawing and painting. Flowers are still the subject but I am getting ready to expand and get these images on canvas but I also have some new images to upload to my products store on Zazzle at Award Winning Fine Art
My winter was spent recovering from two falls that landed me (literally) in the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago for four weeks. After that the time was spent at home trying to get more rehabilitated.
I have started to draw again and it feels good.
