how do I feel when I’m painting?
It’s just in the moment. I find it quite hard to be in the present, but not when I’m painting. Life is busy and I find it hard to unwind, but when I’m painting it’s easy. When I’m painting it doesn’t matter what’s happened that day, or that week, over even in the past year. You aren’t thinking about that, or thinking about the future. I find that really good for my wellbeing, it just feels good to be focused on one thing. It’s quite therapeutic I guess. There’s no worry. It takes away the busy-ness in my mind. When I’m painting I’m just painting. As I develop I’m really excited about what the future holds, too, about trying new things and seeing what my potential is.
