Feed your head!
(sorry about the earworm, there, but it had to be done)
Something I always forget, but is of vital necessity - intellectual stimulation is the life-blood of writers and other artists. When I haven't seen art, listened to live music, or done any of those other life-affirming things, I have a very very difficult time writing.
Yesterday, I checked out the MC Escher exhibit at the Portland Art Museum. It was brilliant and eye opening.
The show had study after study for his pieces, original lithographs, and even the plates he used for his work.
What did I learn?
That art takes time. And, despite my natural tendency towards impatience, it is supposed to take time.
What a relief!
