The Draw Of The Vortex
Sunday, June 27th, 2010
In 1996, when I moved to the beach, I bought a book, Drawing For Dummies, because I thought that now that I was going to be a free-spirited divorcee, I would try my hand at art. But I was so busy walking on the beach and writing that the book sat on the shelf. Until 2008.
After my accident in 2008, I spent months off my feet and much of that time, I was on pain meds that clouded my thinking. I didn’t do much writing or reading. Something about my pain or the painkillers or the shock of the accident disconnected me from my usual link with words.
Still, I craved creativity. I wasn’t content to just watch TV or listen to music. I wanted to bring something to life. Law of attraction reminded me of that book on my shelf. (more…)
