A Year of Making Art, Day 326: Coaxing Form and Shape

March 11, 2008  Day 326

Today I went with Adrian on his walk with Roxy through the woods.  We still have ice covering the branches of all our trees, and it was melting in the bright sunlight today.  An amazing sight.

Tonight we have our bipolar support group meeting, which has been canceled the last two times because of bad weather.  We only meet twice a month, so it is difficult for many members when we have to cancel.

In my drawing today, I had to work hard to bring order out of chaos.  Once or twice it seemed to be coming together nicely, and then I ruined that and had to continue to coax it into something with form and shape:

I got a call from a Boston gallery today and they want me to send five paintings right away for a presentation they are making to a client.  I will get on that first thing tomorrow.  Now, I'd better make dinner so I can get to my bipolar meeting.

(Note: There is a gap between the dates I'm writing and posting in order to give me time to get ahead.)
