A New Beginning...

I am about to embark on a new piece and am overwhelmed with insecurity.  It has been two months since I have done anything truly creative or even felt somewhat capable of such a thing.  To save time I will simply state that life has felt very bleak these last few months.  Something I was certain of, that I had come to depend upon more than anything, turned out to be not so definite.  I would like to say that in my time of despair I was quick to let my emotions out on the canvas but I would be lying.  While I did try to keep busy the thought of picking up a brush was the furthest thing from my mind.  And even now as I attempt to lose myself in an image once again I have no idea how I will manage to reach the end.  I guess the point is not to know how to finish the race but, rather, to take one step at a time and see where it leads.
