It is easy to let time just slip away and to get caught up in the busy-ness of the everyday. The last few weeks have been very busy – in a good way – with lots of family activities and commitments mixed in with work as well.

What I didn’t;t do in that time is carve out some moments for creativity … and I need creativity to keep me balanced. Thankfully, I got wiser and dug out my journal and just created. Maybe the guys in the painting are also pondering the joys of just stopping, contemplating and creating … or maybe they are just chatting about sport!

This was a mixed media exercise – acrylic paints, India ink pens and coloured pencils.Super fun. I’m ready to do some more.
