My week off work is ticking away. I need more homework done and more creative work completed. Does everyone put pressure on themselves to get their enjoyment done? Like if you really like to read do you feel the need to get so many chapters read a day? I find that I want things to be correct, when I am the person who is creating the image from nothing, for no one, why so many rules and pressures. It can be exhausting.

Tomorrow you will see these put together, any thoughts?
"Painting is easy when you don't know how, but very difficult when you do." ~Edgar Degas

I am posting some samples of my paintings I am feeling the painting bug today I had a dream about an image last night. So I might be dragging out my easel today. 

This painting is "letting go"  i have this above my desk. It is one of my favorites. My other favorite is "after rain"

I feel that I am working toward a combination of my painting and quilling. It is an idea that is rattling around my brain that hasn't completely formed yet.
