i cannot put my finger on it

Feeling pretty empty, creatively speaking, right now. Don't know why.

Clean out your closet---whichever one is the absolute worst. Take a half a day to do it. Throw away. reorganize, buy fun new storage containers. I can't put my finger on it...but it works.

Sam said...

Fantastic stuff here - talk about making things interesting!

Andres said...

Good stuff, Andrea- even when running on empty. Good for you that you created something (quite good BTW) when feeling uncreative. When I get in such a non-creative funk, I usually just ignore my sketchbook while mumbling to myself about my lack of talent.

Your work is great in so many ways. I agree with Andres' comment. You'll get through the funk and continue to inspire us.

At least you're not "bottling-up" your feelings!

Well, take it easy... I'm filling half-hyperactive half-empty right now, and it's pretty weird... I'm goint to clean up my desktop and organise art stuff, maybe this will help. Probably not, by I need to clean it anyway! Big hugs :)

oh cara! I know egg-zactly how you feel. And I've heard lots of other people say the same. What is going on with all of us? We all need a recharge - quick! send in the battery brigade!

hey AJ, sometimes just putting the pen to the paper and doing anything can makeyou feel better. And this should, I really like this. Love the simple line.

Andrea,
This is a great line drawing. If this is the stuff you put out when you aren't inspired, then count yourself blessed. I love this drawing!

Well it happens, and when it passes you will burst forth with exciting ideas. Cool sketch here!yflxzqg

Thank you all, guys.

Juj, I guess it must be the time of year, or something. I've heard a lot of people saying the same thing. It'll pass.

Sandy, I hope you are right. That's usually the silver lining to a drawing funk - bursting forth full of ideas.

Cheers, folks.

Hey Andrea,
Despite your creatively empty feelings you have created yet another beautiful drawing. You got it all going on, girl and you will again and we will all be blown away and amazed by your work. Thanks for stopping by my blog and your wonderful comments.

When I get this way I go do something entirely not art-related, and then find myself pulled back. You expressed it perfectly with this drawing Andrea.

Oh, i had not seen this one.
I feel VERY similar. And i thought i could just blame it on work, which has been a bit overwhelming.
What a cool illo to explain how we're feeling.

that's just it said...

i love this. the simplicity is awesome.
