I've been keeping up with your blog ...Hi Rose,<br /><br />I've been keeping up with your blog through the holidays, sympathizing, commiserating, and just f*ingwell wishing you could get some relief.<br /><br />Just emailed this to Neil and thought you might also find it interesting or at least a distraction. <br /><br />Not sure if you've heard of an artist, Ken Foster, who lives on the Downtown Eastside? He's the son of a friend of ours and suffers from mental illness and, as a result, crack addiction, but in spite of that, or maybe because of it, has been predominantly homeless but painting for the last 15 years. <br /><br />We went to his show on new year's eve and ended up buying a painting he made for us the next day. Here are some of his paintings and a short doc of his work:<br /><br />http://www.flickr.com/groups/skor/<br /><br />http://www.5mindocs.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=96:following-foster-2nd-place-winner&catid=24:2008-vancouver&Itemid=99<br /><br />p.s. I love Banksy too, partic. the Flower Hucker!<br /><br />Hoping with you for change,<br />:)KirstenKirsten (not Kristen)https://www.blogger.com/profile/18189966461050575036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1726155289174009392.post-57751902099563603752010-01-06T05:57:29.647-08:002010-01-06T05:57:29.647-08:00I could have written this post (apart from the bit...I could have written this post (apart from the bit about your boys, as I have no kids.)

The rest do you manage step by step. The constant dissatisfaction is an obstacle for you.<br /><br />But that's just my opinion. My opinion of course, has no universal validity.<br /><br />So, I wish you a little satisfaction.Jenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12667663863265921903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1726155289174009392.post-1229400638652186852010-01-06T01:02:05.483-08:002010-01-06T01:02:05.483-08:00I hope you feel better, and get to relax your mind...I hope you feel better, and get to relax your mind & your body to create. We all have to take a break every once in a while, and usually after you have a sudden burst of making things (it happens to me frequently).<br />: )Sarah Knighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16054477978470497670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1726155289174009392.post-38944618536072719332010-01-05T17:10:56.674-08:002010-01-05T17:10:56.674-08:00I think so too, 'Cuz.

I get so exhausted that I'm not able to create. That's often why I write such short blog posts and such short choppy sentences. I find photography easier and I have a lot of fun with that.<br /><br />The last 2 months being sick I haven't been able to do anything other than survive, like buying food and doing laundry. I know things will get better now because I'm feeling a bit better and I vacuumed!<br /><br />Thanks for sharing about your mom, I love to hear how people have dealt with their creativity during the toughest times.<br /><br />I feel good things coming and am ready to tackle the barriers between me and what I want out of life.BaldyLockshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17503554487494032312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1726155289174009392.post-16966888030814947832010-01-05T16:59:36.375-08:002010-01-05T16:59:36.375-08:00"STOP WHINING ABOUT IT AND DO SOMETHING"..."STOP WHINING ABOUT IT AND DO SOMETHING"......that's the first step to everything gettin' better.'Cuz I Felt Like It!https://www.blogger.com/profile/06771721228319905882noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1726155289174009392.post-84847816545875641322010-01-05T15:26:47.690-08:002010-01-05T15:26:47.690-08:00It sounds like its time to get out of a rut. What ...It sounds like its time to get out of a rut. What is stopping you from creating? Are you not feeling well enough or are creative thoughts not flowing? Perhaps your art form needs to change to adapt to the new you? I don't know... I'm just rambling. My mother used to write for her creative outlet but after being diagnosed with RA, she gave up writing and took up painting... which is what she did when she was a child. <br /><br />Personally I think you are very creative. Your creative side comes through in your blog - and I particularly like the subheading on your blog '...and the horse you rode in on'.Carolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14607559482363983911noreply@blogger.com
