my bits of heART come to me fully formed
when these bits remain unresolved i become positively restless
without my model i am left with nothin’ but imagination
(models. sigh.)

the idea has now moved from doodle to painted doodle
progress? …or am i just moving farther from that bit?
imagination can be a dangerous thing
patience is near impossible!

p.s. my experiment with acrylics has begun in earnest. i remain unconvinced.

my car was broken into
right in my lane
the assailants absconded with a pile of dusty change and my sense of security
my expressionism class, just after, provided the victim support

…AND I am kind of insulted that the crackheads didn’t seem to be interested in my music.

here is what happens when
a saturday
the eve of Ottawa Fashion Week
a MOMA modern art history “expressionism” module
reflections on an odd number of weeks
and
a Marie-Claire magazine
collide
…and, of course a reverent nod to both Wangechi Mutu and Egon Schiele who rocked my world this week

what does heARTbeatgal do when she is craving inspiration?
she flees
(and speaks in the third person?)
new perspectives
re-energized
ready to paint



Ghada Amer & Wangechi Mutu
