I’m currently sitting in my Art Therapy group room at the hospital where I have been staying in for the past week. When I was unwell, I disappeared for a while, leaving me bereft of any creativity that usually dwells in my soul. Now, after such a period of quiet, I finally feel able to express myself through my art. I did this image in the morning using ink on paper and using string, brush and spray to create a tree, a rabbit and a bird. You may not see much talent in this picture, however for me it was quite a big accomplishment, it gave me a sense of achievement and joy.

This is not my usual kind of blog, usually I am a lot more philosophical, but it’s the 1^st of the month and so I felt the need to write something. I have nothing else to say for now, no profound words or answers to the universe. But I wanted to reach out and encourage my readers to find their own lifeline, just like mine is art. Keep smiling.
