I am treating myself today. Diving into this delicious canvas and reading Big Magic. I saw @elizabeth_gilbert_writer speak last year in Miami and she blew me away with her eloquent thoughts about creativity. This is from the back cover of her new book:"Creativity is sacred, and it's not sacred. What we make matters enormously, and it doesn't matter at all. We toil alone, and we are accompanied by spirits. We are terrified, and we are brave. Art is a crushing chore and a wonderful privilege. The work wants to be made, and it wants to be made through you." ~Gilbert I believe in #bigmagic #soul #painting
