About this blog:
Years ago, my sister and I went to see the Darjeeling Limited in theater. Afterwards, we were talking about the movie and about our love for creating art. We shared a similar problem: we put our art last to the business of our lives and thus hardly ever made time to create anything. My sister suggested that we make a commitment to create a piece of art every week. She jokingly said "Can we agree to that?" in reference to the line Owen Wilson used repeatedly in the movie.
Although I tried at first to stick to our commitment, I've lapsed into not making time to create. I'm hoping this blog will help me rededicate time to that purpose.

Recovery 2/8/14
I haven't posted since August. In September, I tore my ACL in my knee and in December, I had surgery to reconstruct it. It's been an interesting five months... I've thought a lot about not taking for granted what I am physically able to do and I've had downs and ups in frustrations and triumphs with my recovery. In the time spent on physical therapy, I've let go of things... one of which was time to make art. I hope that I've learned something in all this. I think about my mortality. I think about my blessings. I praise God for the ability to walk again. I praise God for a chance to draw today.
