Craftsmanship and Creativity
Are very different in the amount of energy they take from me. The creative episodes, when I work on a painting, can be very exhausting and I need some kind of treat for myself once I am done with it.
Believe it or not but I can relax the best with even more work. Woodwork :-) I am always looking forward to dedicate a full day after a long painting session to building a nice frame for the painting. My mind can relax while I do that...I know exactly what to do and so the craft is very different from the creative process. That's really refreshing.
Now I can start another painting tomorrow ;-)
A good frame gives a painting the last touch...
...now I can't wait to find a nice place for them!
In case that you have missed my post from yesterday...I made a nice little progress documentation about this piece. You can look at this HERE.
