Just one? I need to borrow lest one of the nine muse's. Maybe that is what I should do to inspire one to sit on my shoulder. I should seek Mnemosyne's mercy. I struggle with putting pencil to paper constantly for six months now. My beloved Art corner that I grew so invested in and loved is no longer accessable. My table is in two peices. I am reduced to working with a clip board that rests on my thighs with a chair before me to act as a brace for the clip board, and a tray art box. I have no corner of reffuge as all my creative private inspiration was hatched there as I learned. There is no corner that is bright and cherry as the one I had in this new home. I am on my knees here begging that some mercy is shown or that I can find the spot that is strongest in inspiration to put my fingers and mind back to work. Should that I create an assignment for myself maybe?

Pick one of the nine daughters of Zues and her speicilty.
Draw about her inspirational insights.
Make your drawing the very meaning, a part of your art and tell an emotional or insightful story all by images.


That is a pretty frightening assignment when ones has not been able to make the mind connect with a pencil and move across paper for a very long time.
