Over 5 years ago (I think) a group of us started a small group at church.  We were all artists, or interested in art.  In our small group, we had a small amount of time dedicated to discuss a book, “The Creative Call” and the rest of the time to work on whatever art we brought.  We met for about 6 months, and then it died off.  Eventually me, Julia, Mary and Sandia were meeting regularly once a week to paint & draw.  We usually met at Julia’s, sometimes at Sandia’s.  Sandia stopped coming and I had a baby and then it was just Mary and Julia.  For the past few months, Mary has been sending me regular emails reminding me and the other recipients that she and Julia will be painting tonight at Julia’s.  I haven’t gone in a VERY long time.  Tonight I went.  I so enjoyed myself.  I felt like drawing in blue…on blue paper.  I equipped myself with my blue sharpie, a lt. blue piece of 12 x 12 scrapbook paper and the coke that I had bought earlier and hadn’t finished  yet.  I didn’t leave my house till almost 7 because I was updating my webpage for school.  I stayed till 10:30!  I drew Julia’s kitchen as she worked on her paintings.  I didn’t get quite done, but I will probably take it with me tomorrow to work on.  I really enjoyed myself.  I forgot how much I love to draw!
