Ballpoint Pen Mandala

This one was worked in spurts, 

sometimes going a week without touching it.

I painted the background with watercolors,

and did the mandala in two different ballpoint pens.

I feel like I may never ever feel very creative again.

Some of the spark is back, but it is sloowww,

and it is not linear.

Work is FINALLY going well, after over a year of 

crises. You know what happens when external

problems are over? You are stuck with yourself.

I'm not liking it very much, but the one saving grace

are the 2 year olds I work with every day.

They are frustrating at times, but oh so charming

and cute and loving.

I'm hanging in there, and keep on hoping maybe

I will consistently do some art.
