This leaf survived in my bag for 5 weeks, on planes and buses, just a little broken on the edges. I’ve run out of canvases, so I have started painting the things I’ve picked up that I said I would paint ‘one day’ 🍁
“There is a pleasure in the pathless woods, there is a rapture on the lonely shore, there is society where none intrudes, by the deep Sea, and music in its roar: I love not Man the less, but Nature more.” 💙💜💚
As soon as I go up in canvas size my paintings turn out very different than my small ones. But this time it didn’t, so I think I have found my ‘limit’.
Pro tip from a veteran 😸 a lot of chronically ill people have to self isolate every year, sometimes for months, myself included. Especially in flu season or during a flare up in symptoms. So, my pro tip is to find something specific to concentrate on. For me it has been art and mahayana buddhist yoga. I am not exaggerating when I say it has saved me and given me so much out of life. Also, rest a lot. Don’t feel like you have to do something all the time. No one really cares what you do with your time and energy, so make yourself comfortable in the uncertainty. 🙏🏼🍀🤓
Skulsfjord, a very nice scenic 40 minute drive from my fjord. Went there with a friend in the polar night this january 💙🏔
