Oh my gosh! Faces!
Who knew?
I've never turned my attention to drawing/painting faces or portraits before. Well, that's not entirely true. I drew a self-portrait, as directed, for the front of my kindergarten report card. I drew a Raggedy Ann doll—replete with face—in a junior high school art class. I replicated my kindergarten self-portrait decades after kindergarten and now use it as my profile picture online. But that's all that comes to mind.
What was I waiting for?
In a day otherwise crowded with tasks and challenges, I drop out of rush-rush-rush, out of hurry-up, out of monkey-mind chatter, and into flow and inner stillness as I paint another abstract face today.
