Today was a real weekend day... I did no work and I actually drew.

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.

Weighted Heart
I drew this while traveling in Puerto Rico this summer. I traveled solo for two weeks and it was a great experience. Of course I had ambitious goals to do more artwork on the trip, but I learned over the course of my travels to loosen the pressure I was putting on myself.
I keep coming back to the imagery of a heart, broken and weighted. There is one who can heal; there is one who can free.
