Funny how I skipped over April....now into May

 Proud of myself for not skipping the rest of the year, but I'm struggling to sort things out in my mind. 

Going through a lot of emotions for several months and seem to be locked, tied in knots. Even the art therapy isn't helping me release...but only into it a few weeks, so I have hope. It helps to hear others finding their way to express what they want and where they want to be....

The art therapy I mentioned came across my FB feed offering an Art Retreat (online) with 3 days free, so that drew me in and there's a wonderful program run by a wonderful (qualified) art therapist, Leah Gutzman. "I support creatives with healing and manifesting their desires utilizing art media through art therapy services and coaching." Even if you don't feel you're an artist, this could be just what you need to become one!

The art I'm doing in this program is not anything like doing pet portraits, which I've been doing for 4 yrs. :) In fact, it's hard to even recognize my art! For instance...

Quite a difference in style and purpose...that's ok, I needed a shift of activities. This art therapy is about "self-care", which all of us hopefully are paying attention to!

So at least I made a post for May....considering that I'm having to learn Windows 11 now, it's a miracle I can post at all! LOL!
