I took a very long break from my pen & ink work, and the flicker seems to imply that I have come back to it very refreshed from concentrating on painting for so long. So although I don't plan on taking a long break from painting, even this short break will probably breathe some fresh air into my next brush strokes. <br /><br />Thank you both for your well wished and sympathy with the apartment search!Gabriellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15086855019663714453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29018441.post-77550440465847278312010-04-12T10:50:09.547-07:002010-04-12T10:50:09.547-07:00Hi Gabrielle,
Sad to hear that the apartment trav...Hi Gabrielle,<br /><br />Sad to hear that the apartment travails continue. I'd sure have second thoughts about the guy who doesn't show. Unless he calls with a very good excuse I'd keep looking. But I'm sure at some point you'll just get exhausted and maybe have to take something that you have misgivings about. Hopefully you'll find the place of your dreams before that.<br /><br />Flicker looks good. I knew that they were on the ground a lot but I never realized that they were eating ants. You learn something everyday.<br /><br />I understand about the soothing quality of pen and ink. Sometimes you need something that is 'automatic' in a way. For awhile I did some detailed insect drawings in rapidograph and it was a bit similar. I NEVER thought I'd be able to work like that but I found I actually enjoyed it. And sometimes it's just good to change media.<br /><br />Painting should be exciting when you come back to it.Ken Januskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16984782169460110520noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29018441.post-11368907541631798212010-04-11T18:11:16.316-07:002010-04-11T18:11:16.316-07:00I LOVE your Flicker Gab!
