Art for recovery?
I usually think of art as one of those things I do when I'm manic. Super-creative. Brilliant ideas.
Right now I'm damn low. Thinkin' about you-know-what. And then this weekend I started drawing these crazyassed things I can only describe as two-dimensional colored doilies. And it put me into this really weird mood. Not happy, but not unhappy. Just very, very calm.
So I guess what I'm saying - do you do art when you're depressed? Can it pull you out of it? I'm wondering, if I keep it up, if things will start to get better.
