I am considering letting it die, to be resurrected in a totally transmogrified form which relates to Seven Sketches only in that it is keeping me actively in artist brain. I have not decided to give it up... but I may. Or I might cut it back.<br /> <br /> In any case, I am going to do an <a href="http://www.theartistsway.com/">Artist's Way</a> workshop at <a href="http://www.thefoldedleaf.com/">The Folded Leaf</a> (a yoga + massage + general mindbodyhealth Temple of Awesome.) I think that'll be a better plan to scrape the rust off of my creativity and repaint it all... whatever. I'm too tired to finish a spiraling metaphor sentence.<br /> <br /> Mothering a clingy toddler, working a nearly full-time job, and a daily sketch practice are like, to quote Buffy the Vampire Slayer, "oil, water, and a third unmixey thing." Evidence: people who are refreshed and clear-thinking do not quote long-ago-cancelled vampire television series on their fancy, serious fine art blogs. Or perhaps that's <i>totally</i> something I would do, but we have know way of knowing if it's fatigue related because I haven't been well-rested since early April of 2006 and I had no art blog then.<br /> <br /> I am off to alleviate any guilt about quitting my art cards by posting at <a href="http://graceinsmallthings.ning.com/profile/HeidiRichardsonEvans">Grace in Small Things</a>, the impetus behind this whole crazy idea.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2338855877633574365-5851278871122017388?l=www.twoserpents.com'/></div>heidi daisybonesheidirevans@gmail.com2
