Bicscrawling and setting attainable goals.

in art •  7 years ago  (edited)

Today I chatted with @weirdheadaches

He is a philosophical type and also very open about his own struggle with pain.

We talked about many things.

Including goals to make small changes in order to effect big changes in daily life.

I also heard from @novaatebatman, who encouraged me to voice a dream.

Both of these guy's know what it is like to feel limited by illness.

I think with initial goal setting, particularly when you are struggling a bit, it is important that they are attainable.

To give you a sense of achievement and a glimpse at possible success.

And something to build your next goal on.

I have set some basic goals for myself-

Around self nurturing.

Helping my family and household become more organised and less chaotic.

I also will go outside everyday.

And of course draw everyday.


The goal I set a few weeks ago has mostly been maintained.

To #bicscrawl with my trusty humble bic pen.

I have been working on some cryptokittie inspired art, which I will post tomorrow.

This scribble was one of the many half doodles I had piled up.

I have worked it up a little more.

Perhaps you can see it has much more controlled at one point.

I am a scribbler at the moment.

Although I have tried to reins in my scrawl with the cats that I will post tomorrow.

Or as @littleblue says,

Tittie tats.

That inspires another sort of image for me.

A buxom inked vision.

perhaps inspiration for my next drawing.😉


As far as voicing a dream.

That is a little harder to do.

But I do have them.

One really.

Maybe 2...
It would encompass harnessing the creativity and art...

That is already too many bullshit words!

I want to create and write and make a living from it.

I want to be in control of my pain and energy and available to my family.

I want to be free of the chains of economic hamster wheel.

Thank you @novaatebatman and @weirdheadaches.

Thanks also @arthuradamson for your post and chat. I appreciate your words so much.

I also dream about having my own gallery, like @likearthuradamson
