Progress Check

More than 7 weeks into The Altered Life Project... Progress check.

House is cleaner more often. I am excercising at least 4 days a week. Doing my morning pages every morning. More in touch with myself, I'm a little annoyed that after almost 41 years, I'm still "finding myself". Discovering what I like, what I don't like and getting more vocal about it. Becoming a little more willing to experiment artistically. Willing to make 'bad" art in order to get to "good" art. Example...




Conversation I had with Kelly last week...


Kelly: "What ya doin'?"

Me: " Makin tentacles"

Kelly: "Tentacles? For what?"

Me: " A shit monster"

Kelly: " Oh. A poop goblin."

End of conversation. I don't know if it's good or bad that she gets me so well. Who's ever heard of a shit monster/poop goblin? I hadn't until I started making one. Didn't use the tentacles. At least not yet anyway.


Safer art...
