Rain Drops Keep Fallin’

By

Sometimes things just don’t turn out like they do in your head. Case in point, the above picture. I was thinking about this for a little while and finally decided to make it. I haven’t been making much art lately. I’ve been running again… alot. I am running 1,000 miles this year. It wasn’t a hastily made decision. I started the year in my usual fashion by not drinking and running 5K everyday but when January was over I just kept going. Fitting an hour of running in everyday is pretty hard to do but I’m hanging in there. I’m already about 2/3rds of the way there. To try and stay healthy and not hurt myself I’ve been sleeping more and relaxing when I can. All that means I have not been making art.

 

 

I finally was struck with inspiration and I ran with it, see what I did there? Anyway, I had this idea but when I put it all together I was just disappointed, so I went a different route. When I did that craft show a while back the first thing I sold was a piece using beads and stars that I made from clay. There have been several art pieces that I have sold or given away over the years that I wish I had back and that was one of them. It haunts me. So I decided to go back to that idea.

 

 

All-in-all I am pretty happy. I can nitpick it but I decided I’m just going to make one more and iron out the details.
