I'm actually longing to get back in the studio. I haven't felt this way in years. I do something called "nesting" when I think I need to be in the studio I spend time arranging, cleaning, thinking. I know it's all part of the process I go through but it is also this thing called "procrastination". I have fear. Fear tht what I used to be able to do I no longer can - or will be good at. I sold in galleries and had shows. Now I have trouble attempting to create what used to be seamless for me.
I was trying to recreate. That's impossible. Why recreate what has been created once, and quite well (if I do say so myself). Time to strike off in another direction - ans that's the fearful part... Which way do I go without getting lost? Maybe I need to embrace the getting lost part and just go for it. Isn't this what I tell my students every single day. Now here I am at a crossroad myself.
