know when...

wave, 12 X 12, acrylic on paper

...to say when.

I have a tendency to want to "push my luck",

to keep going regardless of how tired I am or

how tired my eyes are, even when my inspiration

is GONE just because "I should" make the most of my time.

Today, I stopped after 3.5 hours and tried to go back.

When I had my doubts, I listened and stopped again.

I think this is one of the FIRST times I have done this.

I need to trust: trust that the inspiration and time will

return. It always does.
