Happy New Year

Are you feeling as intimidated about going back to work as I am? I can’t imagine generating another idea or image ever again.

Today is my first day back in the studio so I started by scanning the drawings I did over Christmas which are almost exclusively of my family sitting on sofas.

I was aiming to do loads of drawing over Christmas and felt I’d failed because I didn’t draw every day, but now I think perhaps that’s fine…

But there’s so much to be angry about in the world, and here I am just drawing my family reading and sewing and looking at their phones and doing jigsaws

Maybe if I just keep drawing I’ll stumble across something profound

Or perhaps I won’t and maybe that’s okay too.

Happy New Year
