Sometimes the creative drive takes a quiet tone, action retreats within, and the outer appearance is of stillness. The paints remain in their jars and tubes, canvases gather dust, and it seems nothing is happening.
This winter I have not painted at all. I have deliberately busied my overactive mind with huge learning tasks, partly because […]

Alex Shalman has created the Happiness Group Writing Project and this is my contribution. He asks that we answer five questions so let’s get started!
