| Looking at the Dream 'lil dreamer 4/11 |
As of late, I have been healing through art. The hubs, the amazing and wonderful boy that he is, got me an enormous artist's easel for my birthday. In addition, I was let loose in the art supply store. This is my kind of heaven! Art has replaced writing at least for a bit. Hence the lack of recent posts. For me, the art of creation is the ultimate healing and thus, I have been less and less strained lately.
I have had this image in my head for a long time as it is exactly how I feel--as though I am eagerly looking upon every pregnant woman wishing that were my place in this world. The pregnant woman could be any of the countless pregnant friends, co-workers, or family members that regularly cross my path. But, it could just as easily be me.
So here is my latest art therapy--(though the lighting is not so good) here is a soft pastel rendition of my not so pregnant self looking in on, eagerly anticipating, and dreaming of my someday pregnant self. Sharing my art is not something I normally do as I am incredibly self-critical, but I felt that this piece just might speak to some others. So, there it is, from one dreamer to another.
