Thanks again for your honesty with your struggles. As you know I'm currently in a program to help get unstuck "... how to heal our mindset ..." its been a slow process. I'm not great at writing down my feelings like you are but I guess I should start as that might help! I don't have any great ideas for projects so it's stopping me from starting! Arg!

Good luck with your graphic novel - it will be fabulous!

Subscribed! Happy to support a local artist. Yes perfectionism is a killer for me. We just moved (landlord was selling) and we’re lucky The Husband's family had a place they were looking to rent in Esquimalt. It’s much bigger then where we were and most exciting I have a whole bedroom for doing art. It’s also freaking me out a bit because it’s an actual place to do art. Thanks for the pep talk about just do it! Still unpacking so I can procrastinate for a bit. 😂

Totally agree about Austin Kleon's newsletter. I got so much out of his regular blog I'm happy to pay now.

Going to try to get to the gallery show on Blanshard before it closes in November.
