The Cat’s Whiskers

100 Day Project Day 62

I finished a painting today, and I know how I feel about that. I started another project that involved journaling that brought up some unexpected darkness, and I know how I feel about that. I know how I feel about all the things that are happening in the world today, and I know how I feel about the way people I thought were friends have shunned me for speaking.

Putting all that in a paragraph makes it less of a surprise that the journaling exercise brought up all the stuff that it did.

I’d rather be alone, which in reality I’m not, than be a silent, nice, and masked.

So today got a bit deep, and that’s fine. I finished the cat girl painting, tho. There’s a lot I don’t like, but I started fiddling and I was spoiling things, so I stopped because done and imperfect is better than overworked and ruined.

There’s a lot I like, too, so I’m leaving her to dry, and moving on.

Aside from art, I am still processing the series I binged the other night on Netflix – Baby Reindeer. An incredible piece of storytelling from Scottish writer, actor and comedian Richard Gadd. Just wow.

I’m off to paint over that bit of journaling I did earlie, and transform it, and see where that page takes me.

Bit of a disjointed blog for a bit of a disjointed day.

Til the morn,

Suzanne
