I went to life drawing today. I thought my work was awful. I am going through a difficult time of doubt, and white emptiness. I think I am posting this hoping to encourage myself. Somehow.

A grinning vegetable.

Before throwing Rumi's list I took a picture. Because I love her drawings, writing and ability to arrange things beautifully. The following is an example.
