Lethargy & Inertia


Two words that pretty much sum up how I feel this evening.

Maybe it's the weather. It's sultry and there's a storm brewing.

Maybe it's just me.

Here's a picture I painted earlier in the week when I had the energy to lift a brush. If you look very closely you'll see the dancer.

I'm dancing in my heart... honest...

Sharing for Paint Party Friday.

  1. Hello lovely. Sorry you feel that way tonight. Me too. I've had one of those days. I just wrote another Japan post to cheer me up. It did but I still feel knackered. Weather isn't helping. We had a thunder storm but it didn't really really lift the heavy air. Here's to feeling better tomorrow xxx

  13. It's definitely the weather - I feel it too. It's very hard to get motivated to do anything when it's sticky and muggy yet wet and rainy. Meh.
    Your painting is lovely and I did look closely and I did see the dancer!

  21. I don't know what making you lethargic but it's the weather that's doing it to me. Too hot to do anything.

    Your painting/collage is fantastic.

  25. Dancing in your mind totally counts, at least in my book. I love this painting, and the semi-hidden dancer is genius.

  27. She is lovely and the layers are stunning. Weather can sometimes really bring us down. We are on day 6 of over 100° F and it's really wearing me down.
