Day 39 Joy in painting again

After being inspired and encouraged by the book I finished last night, I finally got myself to sit down at my craft center/desk/area.  It was the first time I have painted since I moved in February, but found a few canvas boards I had not yet used, found some brushes and paint and began.  As I had first sketched on the canvas to outline my ideas, I found the perfectionist in me wanting to quit, but I kept going, reminding myself today was painting to get started, to create and come up with ideas, not to create a finished work of art.  It's amazing how you lose track of time doing something that brings you so much joy.  Good thing it was a laundry/relax and spend time around the house day!
