Ever felt the need to get back to the simple things in life? I did, so a few weeks ago I started a drawing class at Dover Heights near Bondi. I’m not really what I’d consider the arty type – and I’m definitely not very good! – but I have felt the need to do something different, to take up a hobby as they’d say in the old days, for a long time… And after trawling through the Sydney Courses website (which also has a course in hula hooping – next on the list, for sure!) I decided on something a little different to my every day life. Something to get my creative juices flowing. And I am really enjoying it.
I’d love to create sketches and artworks like these.
I find that each Wednesday night my mind is clear for two hours of all the mundanities of my every day life and the things that are praying on my mind. It’s like art class and drawing is a kind of meditation for my mind. So perhaps the promises that I made to myself a few weeks ago that I would learn to meditate are coming true, in a round about way, anyway…
