My Word for January: Discipline

It's been a busy month so far. I've been totally committed to painting daily, completing a painting each day when possible. It's day 27 and I've finished 20, mostly 10x8s, and have a good start on a larger 30x24. I had been feeling somewhat spent on the abstract model and wanted to take what I'd learned "playing with paint" onto my next endeavor. Who would've guessed that would be people, so different than what I had been doing? Yet the discoveries I made doing more abstract work are following me into this new territory. And that's what this is all about for me. It's a learning process, as I believe all creating is. I think that's why I love it.
