Conditional love - you will never be worthy. Boy, that’s a real downer, huh?
I am back to working, which is to say I’m not crying every day the way I was, but mostly I’m just working and spending a lot of time meditating, trying to figure out my life. Starting over sucks, but conditional love, which has pretty much plagued me my whole life as well, also sucks, so maybe the two will cancel each other out. I don’t know.
I was trying a lot of stuff with this piece, and I think that’s why it seems a little experimental. I sort of feel like that there’s some potential there, but I’ve really got to play with it a bit to be sure. We’ll see what happens with the next piece.
I used more colored pencil than usual, but I am pleased that I am getting better at letting go of my notions of scale and proportion. That’s progress, I think.
