I thought for certain I had posted these images someplace - I think I actually did, on instagram in some form. I posted them on flickr but somehow I didn't get them here.
The good thing is even though I am behind in posting, I have been creating even in the tiniest ways and isn't that what art every day month is about?
I took photos before surgery:
This is my pre-op view from the head of my bed at the San Joaquin Outpatient Surgery Center, where I received great care, by the way.
I edited images after surgery (two old works - a black and white film photo of me overlaid with a mixed media abstract self portrait.) I loved playing around with these and look forward to doing more.
Multi-layered with meaning mixed media piece titled, for now, Boom Boom Boom Take 3
I am pleased to report I am healing well.
Tonight I plan to see a play and tomorrow I am actually going to facilitate a workshop. I don't think I am pushing too hard as long as I stay gentle and conscious in each moment.
Right now I am sitting on the recliner with my laptop, smelling the fire in my fireplace and listening to it crackle. I am not rushing, I am not dawdling.
I had a great a-ha today, too, and hope to learn more origami via videos today.
Sounds like quite a well rounded, soulful day.
How is November going so quickly?
