Chop Wood, Carry water. 6 x 6 gouache.
Inspired by fantasia, I've painted this before but gave it away. Mickey falls asleep in Fantasia, after using magic to 'help' him with his work while he naps- things get out of control. How it usually is. I think the trick to life -is: Chop Wood and Carry Water . Keep active & strive towards making your own living situation better... no matter your financial situation.
In my experience (including myself), most people appear to become more anxious when they have idle hands, when all they do is sit and watch T.V., them get more anxious. Painting, house cleaning, cooking, dog stuff, exploring the woods -all keep me in the NOW, functioning keeps life - FUN. Keeping busy also assists with keeping my mind off other things like over indulging -in food or libations, distractions in many cases. Napping while others do all the work - will not work out well either, in the long run. I like little visual reminders, they remind me to get cracking'.
Today is Gingers Birthday! I'm going to paint her portrait to celebrate my love for her.
Have a creative day - even if just chopping wood!
