Here's the latest journal entry in my Mermaid Journal/Sketchbook I've been working on this one off and on for a little bit now
and I think I finished her
She is thinking about beliefs about drawing and art
and about Nature vs Nurture
... or...
does someone have a gift for creativity
or can it be nurtured /taught ?
I have written in her hair:
"Think.feel.see.create.express~joy.regrets.secrets~
every spot part of my shadow~
every line it's own meaning~
drawing.sketching.painting
HOW could an Artist live without ?"
"My first Art teacher in Highschool wrote in my poetry booklet:
If one wants to draw, one does not need to have talent
but curiosity and warm attention for everything around"
So I used a small copy of this on my right page, to remember this.
