Stuck



I feel like this puppy. Stuck. I have a show in a few months. I had several ideas I was anxious to work on. They all seem to be reluctant to become brilliant. I have tweaked and sketched and consulted and whimpered and begged.....but nothing.


Artist block isn't new to me. I have experienced it before and probably under the same deadline situation. But now it seems worse! I go to bed every night hoping I will be struck instead of stuck. I am trying to keep the panic at bay while I gather my creative cells and throw them a party. But now they all seem to be hung over and disinterested in my plight! How dare they, I even gave them cheese doodles.


During these times my studio changes from being a haven to a torture chamber. Every tool seems to be rolling their eyes at me. "PLLLLeeeease, that's the best you can do?" Didn't they use to love me?


I will carry on. Hunched and pathetic I will endure the insults while waiting for my creative cells to get their act together. Until then, more cheese doodles.
