"Alone," 8 x 10 140 lb Fabriano Artistico rough press paper
Art (as a verb) is a solitary journey.
The deeper you get into it, you keep looking for the road less traveled.
The pandemic has helped us focus in many ways, and while I have sorely missed interaction and support with friends and family, it has increased solitude, time to think, to brood, the try to bring something creative out of being...alone.
In the early days I found art my therapy, home for my thoughts, my imagination, a fortress against the tragedy. As it has lessened for me, I've notice my art has also been muted.
Today's watercolor, the first larger one in a while, that took a long time to come about in my head and heart, tells that story.
