Welcome to Burnout

I did it! I finally reached burnout! I nearly collapsed today. So no big finished painting to reveal I’m afraid.

I realise now that the schedule that I made for myself for finishing these two paintings could be reasonable, but, you know, life, drama, life. What I do have to do is be realistic. As hardworking as I am, it’s not working if I can’t even stand up straight because I am so tired.

So. I do need to get these paintings done. I’m so excited to do the final layer of ‘Bloom’ but I don’t want to do it if I’m falling asleep while I stand. I need to restructure my days and my priorities. I’m not going to do that right now, I’m going to bed.
