Lovely work and your writing and this post regarding reinvigorating creativity is very interesting. It is so easy to fall into predictable habits. I’ve recently returned to watercolors after several years painting in oil. After a shaky start I’ve felt my work improve in exciting ways. Not just technique but the more important exploratory approach. It’s been a circuit breaker in positive ways.

Is the drawing available? A little masterpiece!

Hope it is - let me know, if you would.

Hi Leslie. Thanks for your interest! Yes, it’s available but we are in the midst of an ice storm at the moment with no power or computers (I am on a public library computer right now). So I haven’t listed that piece to my site yet. I’ll get back to you as soon as we have our power back :) -Harry

Thank you. In reading your comments, I have really taken your idea of energy to heart! I have spent many a drawing session trying to 'get it right' and that often leads to frustration. Focusing on the energy - mine and of the work I'm creating - has very much helped me to harness my creativity in a new way. Thank you for sharing your process so openly.
