Maggie's Day 327 of Discovering Love in Letting my Creative Juices Express

It’s going on two o’clock in the morning and I’m just now sitting down to share this day’s love with you. Man, do I ever pack it in.

Sometimes I wonder if I’m crazy. Then I decide that I’m not. I’m just passionate.

Sometimes I wonder how I’m ever going to make it through the weekend or even the next day. Before I know it the weekend is gone and the day has passed and the work is done.

I do believe this weekend I performed a miracle. Tomorrow I will know.

It appears as though my sculptural self-portrait that went on exhibit Friday for the First Friday Trolley Hop was an absolute success. People are still talking about it and not just to me. People like the way I think. I like the way people appreciate my work. Life is good.

Then I worked almost twenty hours for my day job only to spend my nights drawing a self-portrait in charcoal, three foot by three foot. It’s not that I’m square. It’s just that that’s the size paper I used.



While I was staying out of my head and just letting my creative juices express, my friend Robbie was down stairs creating his own self portrait for a different class. Our assignments were different as well.

The photo shown here is Robbie’s depiction of his inner and outer self. I just had to do a life-like drawing of me. Probably one of my most challenging projects yet.

I love working on my art. I love creating. I love to watch it as the paper reveals the image. I feel so absolutely fortunate these days. May my life always be this magnificent.

Sweet Dreams to you and all those who spark your passion! Maggie ã
