one or the other

I tried to draw today, and once again, I ended up with nothing. It seems as though I’ve lost all my creative abilities when it comes to putting a pencil to my sketchbook. I just go completely blank. I went back to one of my pieces that I haven’t been able to finish, and I wasn’t able to do anything. Maybe I’m really only meant to do one thing. It’s either drawing or writing. When I used to do lots of writing, I never found myself inspired to draw, but when I gave up on writing, drawing became the next best thing, and I loved it just as much as I loved writing. My inspiration rockets back and forth according to what I’m really concentrating on at the time. So now that I’ve welcomed writing back, I say a small goodbye to drawing. Hopefully it won’t be too long before the creative juices begin to flow again. Fingers crossed I’ll be inspired enough to draw and write, and not have to decide between doing one or the other.

Oh, and I had my final piano lesson yesterday. I actually felt slightly sad as I was telling my piano teacher that I wasn’t coming anymore. So here’s another goodbye, it’s been six long years, I hope my piano doesn’t gather dust. Now that’s sad…

Anyway, before I finish, I just want to say that I really, really dislike you so much right now. That is all.

“The moment you think you understand a great work of art, it’s dead for you.” ~Oscar Wilde

Goodbye and take care.
