artful practice

This week, my attention has been on getting my art ready
for a boutique plus prepping for 2 art shows coming up. 
I got caught up in tasks.
 I realized  had abandoned an important artful practice,

 to be in my studio simply creating. 

Well... once it came to my awareness I knew I had to change it. 

I allowed myself playtime.

I wholeheartedly resonate with the quote by Picasso:

"Inspiration exists, but it has to find you working"
