I have been starting out my mornings drawing Paint Puddle people and uh - pups, peeps and ponies and find that it is a relaxing way to start my day - sort of like the thoughts pour from my head and out through my pen onto the paper - like a drain

Paint Puddle People
After being captured by Elizabeth Bunsen's paint puddles I decided to try my hand at some. It is a very interesting exercise .... I can only imagine what a Jungian would have to say! It is very meditative to sit and search for images to appear and to left your brain draw what it conjures up.
I started by just puddling watercolors in a small journal (and yes it would be better if I let them dry before turning the page to paint another - hence the speckles)
Last night when it was quiet I opened up and started searching and drawing with my Pitt pens.
Interesting .... verrrry interesting
