New Year, Time for a Refresh

Happy New Year!  How is yours going so far?  I know it's super early, and it can be resolution time.  I've notice everyone does something different.  Some do resolutions, some do intentions, still others make goals.  Which one are you?

I've done it a few different ways.  I know motivation is a big part of anything, regardless of the time of year.  And it can be overwhelming.  I've dealt with overwhelming.  It's a big challenge.  You can get stuck in your own head with circular thinking.  That's when you need to take a step back.  Not literally, but distract yourself.  Pull yourself out of that thinking , take a deep breath, listen to some music, or make some art.

 

The above tag is one found in a effort to take a deep breath and distract myself.  I was playing with a bunch of tags.  This one has a base of gesso, with some Dylusions color sprays spritzed through a stencil.  I don't know how the red bit came into being, but it's pretty cool.  It's a good base to work from.   And that's enough for me.
