At some point, I think screaming would have been a great release, or chowing down on a huge sundae. Day 2 of finals and the depression of grading incomplete projects were overwhelming. Good things about the day: my intermediate and advanced students seemed to have fun playing with the new technique I showed them, students completed and turned in work for the art competition, and art club and environmental club students worked on the mural and the garden, AND I only have to get through one final tomorrow. This week is exhausting. Today's whirlwind had me at a loss of what to draw today, so I turned to my favorite book
Creative Block: Over 500 Ideas to Ignite Your Imagination by Lou Harry. It is a cute little fat cube with photos, questions, statements, etc. It helps me to clear my mind enough to allow new ideas get through. I opened it to a random page and saw an ice cream sundae and immediately this image popped into my head. Something sweet sounds really good right now, but I should probably eat dinner first. Hmmm...
