I loved painting this Mandala back in 2015
I was right in the middle of a really frustrating situation
So I turned to painting
Dug out this canvas and painted a beautiful Mandala.
But it looked too contrived for my liking.
I wanted to add some edge to it
So I got my Gumboots on
Stood up the canvas on the grass and ran at it with my brush loaded with red paint and went splat
And did that two more times
It was so satisfying !
It felt done
And now I had worked through my frustration
And had my answer for my next steps to take sorting the situation out
Hooray !
How do you work through things? Oftentimes if I can’t set up painting I’ll go for a walk or I’ll get creative and cook dinner and sort out the problems of the world and mine too haha!
