What a Glamorous Life

An attempt to paint strawberries and lilacs

Dear Imaginary Friend,

Being an artist is not glamorous. It means smelling of paints, squinting at an art setup, and fighting fatigue.
It's like going to battle with failure: Who will win today, my talent or my incompetence? It remains to be seen. This painting was started today at 3pm, but needs quite a bit more time to pull it together. The battle has been neither won nor lost, thus far.

Stay tuned.
Your Imaginary Artist Friend,
Patsie
