So after yesterday’s journalling fail, I made sure I did my writing this morning. I didn’t know what I was going to write about and after writing a little about yesterday I was a bit blank. Then I found myself contemplating ‘what does success look like to me?’ Specifically, what does success look like for me if I discount cultural and social definitions as a first thought. I found didn’t have answers for this question, just a list of options with more questions. I think this is a useful if not difficult question for me to continue to think about.
I did my painting outside in the garden today. The weather has been unusually nice the last few days and it was nice to spend today at home and in the garden. My sister is still staying with me and we did a lot of talking! But I managed to concentrate enough to do some painting. Strangely my energy has been really good today and I’ve not had that much rest. I did feel a bit ropey this morning but not as bad as I thought I would following yesterday. I hope that there isn’t a PEM (Post Exertional Malaise) payback waiting for me tomorrow or over the next few days.
To start my painting I painted all of the right page in orange. I then used black and red paint to produce something reminiscent of a tiger 🐯 stripe. Then I painted the left page black. I then chose blue to paint over the black. Then put some blue on the right side and red on the left for some balance. I’m not sure what I think about today’s painting. It is striking different from yesterday’s and I do constantly surprise myself by coming up with something completely different everyday. Image below.
