I've been a bit laid up with more dental stuff, about which the less said the better, but I've been whiling away the healing time with some drawing. We had a bouquet of tulips and early iris from my garden that were spent, but still interesting, so they became my subject today.
Nothing too exciting, but that's just fine: sometimes the purpose of art or music or books is to distract us and allow a focus on something entirely absorbing and different. I'm grateful I have those things in my life, and glad I've learned to use them that way. I'm expecting to be back to my normal routine in a few days, but it hasn't been bad to spend some time at home doing this, too.
Very very beautiful drawings. All of them!

These are so beautiful, Beth.
I think maybe drawing - or any creative work - when you're sick or in pain is a little bit of the way towards this: http://www.nytimes.com/2015/05/17/magazine/letter-of-recommendation-blind-contour-drawing.html?em_pos=small&emc=edit_ma_20150515&nl=magazine&nlid=71528942&ref=headline
Hope you're healing well.
