I took a full week off work to try and center myself and rest. And I'm feeling so guilty for doing it... it's ridicules. Plus - I'm already counting how many days have passed and how many I have left.... I'm not sure that I will be able to really, completely relax. I'm trying. I did some fun things - sketched a little.
I said thank you to our lemon tree for providing us with such amazing fruit.
Some of our lemons are bigger than grapefruit (as you can see on the picture).

I made molten lava chocolate cakes for the first time. Hana loved them.
I resisted the temptation and didn't try :-)

I finished a project that was started a month ago.
Zorana,
ReplyDeleteTell us more about that project. The art seems to be all different sizes, is this for a show or something?
I agree with Kate....tell us about the project. It looks fantastic!
ReplyDeleteAnd my mouth is watering over that chocolate cake! I don't eat too many sweets but I do love them!

ReplyDeletehere I am.. lol
ReplyDeleteI see my favorite painting there! Are those magic books? What an amazing collection!
I know what you mean about trying to relax.. I am that way too. I think about what it would mean to personally relax...and that it would be different to me than to someone else..and I carry on. I hope you find peace this week.
xo
PS- that CAKE!
Enjoy your time at home, you shouldn't feel guilty. You probably need it, otherwise you didn't take time of. Sometimes we need time for our own, at least I do. I can't function if I don't have time for my own. Love what you made!
ReplyDeleteZorana, It's a good thing to you give yourself a break and step away from paintings. When you come back, you'll feel more energy and you'll make it up. I know what you mean by guilt..I go through that a lot..but taking a break means..recharging!
ReplyDeleteThe art is fantastic and so is the interview!!
xoxo
I ditto: tell us more about the project. YUM! I see so much of your gorgeous art!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the shout out. I really learned a lot from everyone who participated.

What are these wonderful sewn images??? I Adore them!!! Journals, did you transfer your paintings to fabric??? I Love the Birdies!!!
ReplyDeleteDon't feel guilty about work, an artist like you should live on the Sienne in France & do nothing but paint, your employers are lucky...lol
Hugs & Ladybugs,
Susie
I'm sorry: I would have been all over that molten chocolate cake, girlfriend!
ReplyDeleteYour sketches are beautiful. They are searching and original.
And your journal covers!~
Sorry you're having difficulties relaxing; pamper yourself and take notes for you.
You deserve this time. Today is all we really have...
Oh my goodness, if anyone deserves time off and relaxation it is you my dear sweet friend!
ReplyDeleteLove your interview and will go back and read the others soon.
Oh how I wish you would teach a class. Each one in your 'project' is absolutely gorgeous.
Have a FABULOUS time away from work. Much love, xoxo
Oh my goodness I love the project you are working on. Reminds me of the gorgeous ATC book you sent me once! I still treasure it to this day.
