I love these experiments. Your loose-line drawings are beautiful. It's always a challenge when we are creating to turn that critic down - I'm so glad you did.
Thanks, Melanie. I wonder if the inner critic will ever stop surfacing. I’m guessing, not. Perhaps it’s part of being flawed human beings, we tend to discourage ourselves more than encourage. Ah well, another day, another day to learn.
I'm struggling to turn off that inner critic too. I'm doing lots of writing. I'm still working on writing a historical mystery novel as my "fun" writing. I'm also experimenting with some different styles of non-fiction writing, I'm having a go at writing things which are more sensory and emotional, but still about nature and the environment and science. So far I'm quite pleased with how that is going.

What are you creating nowadays?

Glad to hear "I'm quite pleased with how that is going." That alone, is motivation enough to keep going!
