"Sometimes it's okay to pick the flowers."   Collage, ink, acrylic paint, gesso, graphite, watercolor crayon.  

 

 

Instead of my chores and assorted tasks, I was doing this.  I typically tell myself when everything is done it's okay to allow myself time to create.. guess what? everything - whatever that is - is NEVER done and there is no time to create.  So, lately I've just been saying yes to myself here and there and no to those things, which in the big picture aren't that important... you know, like housework! Who's with me?!!
