In addition to working on several drawings lately and a couple of canvases, I have also been doing some writing. I did, afterall, go to college to do just that, but it has become one of those things that I have a lot of good intentions about, but not a whole lot of follow through. In the past I have written many, many short stories and on occasion kept a pretty honest journal, but what I am writing now goes far beyond any of my other projects.
I have decided to write about my childhood, all of those things...good or bad, that have shaped the person that I am today. I don't often share my work with anyone until it is completed. I never really painted in front of another person until I met Kristen, and similarly, only Kristen has read what I have so far.
I wasn't planning to blog about this journey, but I feel as though this is truly what is current in my life, so now you know!
right on
