Painting my story (Wednesday, May 9, 2007 - 12:00:00 AM)

I am enjoying the sumie art so much. I ordered a sample package of rice papers. It is so differnt to paint on then the watercolor paper. My thoughtful stokes need to be faster, swift, and flying, breezy... sometimes i capture those ideas.. but many times the stoke captures my truths...
Painting my truth is what keeps me going. When I look at others art I am kinder in my critic of it. They are trying to tell something to the viewer and they are mixed up in the painting too. Before my accident I always tried to keep myself out of my art. I simple wanted to create a beautiful painting. Now My art and I are one; I can not separate myself from my art even if i wanted to.

 I have had over a week of pain less than a 2 or none at all. It has been wonderful not to hurt. I tire easly but I am getting stronger. TAi chi is helping bunches. I am looking into physcally therapy. I have to work within insurrance and find a ride. I paint most days even through this last brain change. So frustrating but also its manifistations on the canvus are fasinating.

I have had brain changes the past couple of days. My eyes sight is shifty, my head is tender sore, and when i went to paint the stokes where heavy and I had trouble controlling the brush. The paintings will be labeled 'Brain change'.

survivial mode (Monday, March 19, 2007 - 12:00:00 AM)

 I have not been blogging much because I am in survival mode. I had been trying to knit but i have had to resolve to set it aside; it is too much for my brain. I had broken the 136 stitch "fan and feather" pattern down to counts of 50 but it is not really working. I can not keep count of even 50 stitches consitently enough. I continue to try to paint, tai chi and crochet prayer shawls. I also would like to make some crochet booties. While I am some better than i was 6 months ago I am now facing more brain obticals. Something continues to not be right somewhere and is keeping me physically weak. My spirit is trying to fly and well i am not able. I have been mourning again too. I knew there would be more grief to come as i became better. I try to do more and i am finding it difficult to do what i want. I am fed up not being able to drive. I have not made the bed in months and I have no serious plans for the flowerd beds. I tossed some seeds in the front flower bed. Making the bed and a few house hold chores have been my markes for how i am doing. I will blog again when there is something better to report.
