Creative urges

Jun 22, 2007 17:31

I have this incredible urge to be artsy-fartsy.  Draw, paint, dance, whatever.  I have a new, blank drawing pad tempting me to emblazon the first page with something brilliant.  But herein lies the problem... I've never been able to get past a certain artistic hurdle; I always feel like whatever I do needs to be brilliant.  Especially when I've got an empty white page; it's so perfect as it is, like a newly fallen snow.  I think I'll sully the first page with something hideous, ridiculous, and silly, so I can get over the intimidation of having a book full of blank pages.

Come to think of it, that's my problem with approaching life in general -- I always feel like I have to be perfect.  Screw perfection, let's enjoy ourselves and create poorly-drawn deranged crackhead bunny rabbits!  Maybe I'll inadvertently make art along the way.

Whee!
