I am taking a break for a few days from painting on canvas. I am working on these three tiny little wooden pots. Each is about the size of a small apple. I have shown a photo here of what I have painted them so far. They will need another coat each. The violet one needs varnish. I am not sure what I will paint on the green and lilac one but perhaps some flowers and leaves. It gives my mind a rest from the larger more intricate work.
It is always a good idea when you start to weary of painting to take a rest. Do something completely different such as bake something, or read a book or go out dancing. The mind occasionally needs to leave creativity behind and just coast. I find I then return to my painting with renewed enthusiasm and vision.
