I have a creative block. I think it is mostly due to the recent cold snap, but it could be anything. Whatever the reason, I just don't feel like painting. Who knows how these things work. I have been blocked before. I have tried just plowing through, making yourself work, but I generally find the work produced by that method unsatisfying. I guess I should just look at it as part of the process, and write it off as such. More often than not, I just try to occupy myself with other things that I enjoy doing or thinking about. For example, I am brewing beer. I first started brewing beer when I was in college, way back in the '80's. I did not realize it then, but it was the begining of the Homebrew movement. Over the years, I have continued to collect equipment and recipes, all the while, doing those important taste tests. So I have formulated a basic brown ale, and it is actively fermenting away. Still blocked though. I think I might turn my attention to sculpture for a while. I found a group of sculptor's who are meeting to share the cost of a model. That might be the ticket to get the juices flowing again. We will see. The important thing for me to remember is that, the creative mojo will return, I just have to be open and ready for it.
