But I’m Not Purple
I was looking at my daughter when I drew this. So I can’t say it is “of her” but rather inspired by her presence. When she saw it, she declared, “but I’m not purple.” She seemed to be OK about my posting this intense work of art. Executed in fine children’s crayons on old spiral notebook paper, it is available for the asking price of a mere $1,000. Should I add another zero to that figure? Any bidders?
Do you think it’s blog-worthy? Well, here it is. I had a hard week last week (family stuff: my father is doing well now, thanks), and I was concentrating on concentrating on doing my work (and that second ‘concentrating’ is not a typo: when life gets stressful, doing what one needs to do can take a lot of energy).
What do you do when life feels stressful? Do you write about it, talk about it, run around the block, play music?

Leora says
I hope your mom isn't driving you too crazy.
ramblingwoods says
In my case it would be a short drive to crazy. lol. I am just getting worn down and it will take me some time to get back to my normal level of low energy. That and the fact I am having trouble sleeping. Thank you for asking Leora..

Too many zeros for my wallet - totally blog worthy art. The only thing I come up with when I get the crayons are louzy flowers :)
Leora says
Ellie, would love to see those louzy crayon flowers on your blog, any time!

Of course it's blog worthy!
When I am stressed, I write, or listen to music and try to unwind, or go out and take photographs, or work in my garden, or all of the above. LOL.

I escape into the internet and do my very best to ignore my stressful reality, at least for a little while.
I'm glad to hear your father is doing better now.

These days, I blog.
Some days, I sleep.
On bad days, I snap at the people I love the most.

A tiny bit expensive for me, but still you did pretty well.

Interesting how all the colors come together to shape a form of a face.
Sorry about your hard week last week, and of course it's blog worthy.
Please leave a comment! I love to hear from you.
