Got my own xylophone!

On our visit to Bremen (second biggest port city of germany), i was drawn to a small store with african stuff.

Guest what i bought? A 8 part african xylophone!
I can only remember that this instrument was my favorite one at school, i totally love it and already look forward to buy a second one from ebay!

    I feel the same these days. I have alot of unfinished stuff around, and I am afraid to finish, just in case it doesn’t work out.

    well, it’s different here, I am going out to look for a new job in another corner of our world (as u know, m-c ;) but I’m just not moving my butt cause I fear that they’ll just say “no”. But I keep telling myself what a friend told me a little while ago: If you don’t even ask, that’s a no straightaway! Right, right, right! So let’s move. Really like your site. Ciao, Stephan

    oh goodness Marie-Chantale, my feelings exactly!

    I keep buying new art supplies, thinking that will motivate and excite me to begin creating… but I don’t.

    I think about it all of the time. I envision subject matter that I will draw – I can *see* my drawings – what I know that I can draw.

    Yet I don’t. Is it because I’m afraid that I can’t anymore? I haven’t done much NON-digital in ages. And even that is getting rather non-creative.

    :::sigh:::

    I need a magic wand.
    or something.

    Dear kitty,
    how nice it is to hear from you!!

    what about something rather relaxing than excitiing?

    > I think about it all of the time. I envision subject matter that I will draw –

    what about going into the unexpected? going with what you feel like
    to do with the pencil… shapes, lines, anything but just let it go…

    > Yet I don’t. Is it because I’m afraid that I can’t anymore?

    I can tell you that I ask myself the same questions really often…
    and I think the high expectations are blocking me. I found out that
    the best way to start was at the end of my day, just before to go to bed,
    when all expectations of the day where gone, that I could sit 10 minutes, or only 5, and take the pencil just to “let it go out of me”, just to do it,
    not expecting anything.

    I dare you, try it and give me some news!!!
