So I finally finished a drawing that I have been working at off and on for about 4-5 months....due to slowly being weaned off medication that has all but numbed my creative endeavors...I was finally able to focus this weekend and get this accomplished.....now it will be entered into a local art contest.....last year there were over 2,500 entries into this contest...I would just like to get an honorable mention if anything, that would be nice....but anywho...now that its done I have immediately started a new drawing that I have sketched out months ago...now that I have my creative juices flowing in a somewhat collective direction I am going to try and get a number of pieces drawn done and framed so that I can have a show that a local gallery has been asking me to do on and off for several years now....although I do have to get a more rounded number of pieces framed...10 would be good....12-14 would be even better though...so as I continue down that road my work is evolving somewhat quite quickly...I dont know if its my new mindset after 10 years of being mute in my creative staleness....but I am seeing that I am breaking out of a somewhat daunting and crippling fear of "not being good enough" although that may be in my own head, but critically that remains to be scene....so...with that...here are the photos of the latest "finished" piece and I will publish photos of my newest drawing as they develop....although I must say...that my painting is being severely neglected and my half finished doll torso is staring at me with contempt from my studio bookcase....I just feel the need and pull to draw for now....such is the creative process....
