On writing.......

Food, water,air, & the time to write. My staples for living. A couple days ago, I embarked on the soon to be rewarding, but for now tedious task of completely reorganizing my studio. Since there is little floor visible due to stacks of papers, art supplies, etc. which have been taken from their previous stowage & now wait patiently for a new home in the studio, I haven't allowed myself time to stop & write. This is unnerving to someone for whom writing has always been a creative outlet, a solace, a forum for sorting thoughts. So today, I climbed amid the chaos to write. Perhaps the idea of writing & the actual happening will spur me to complete the task of finishing my massive organization. And of course, with that completion comes the renewal of my other passion, art. A bit of clutter is therapeutic to me. If things are too sterile in their confines, I tend to get stagnant as well with my creativity. Colours, movement, these help to jumpstart the art.
So I have indulged my writing, by turning away from the clutter & toward the keyboard. And hopefully, after today's whirlwind completion of the task at hand, I may allow myself the artistic & literary freedom to draw, paint, alter art, sculpt, write & revel in the joy of a job well done !!!!
