I...Karen, thanks for sharing this profound thought. I understand what you mean. I've abandoned some art projects myself, some even abandoned as they sit in the hangar of my imagination. Some get as far as the pencil sketch, the finished pencil drawing, or even the watercolor stage... but very few made it to the finished acrylic/oil/encaustic painting of my intent. After reading this entry, I don't feel like such a procrastinator after all. I do have lots of ideas, I do attempt them, whether drawing or writing, but so many things intervene in the living of this event called "my life"... I found encouragement in your words, that one should return to it someday, even if after years have passed. Not really abandoned after all, but perhaps, delayed by distractions. For me, anyway!

Ever molding, ever shaping. A lot of tears and a lot of joy are always a part of it.<BR/><BR/>Sometimes, like with children, we must let go show that it can go and make an impression on the world. We will remain protective, becuase no one will ever fully understand how much of ourselves goes with the art we create. Letting go is a gift sometimes. To ourselves and others.<BR/><BR/>Shrug...just my spin. :)Carlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17587256282648405389noreply@blogger.com
