Catalyst 37 – You and Me

Last week’s catalyst
was: Today you get an extra hour, what will you spend that time on?

I wrote:

There are always so many things on my to-do list but if I had one extra
hour I would want to spend it with my son and my husband, I can never
get enough of either in my life.

I wanted to note that after I made this art journal page, I immediately
felt like it wasn’t that good. Certainly not good enough to be in the
company of these amazing artists, but then I remembered my own words:
this is not a competition. It did make me feel better to make the art. I
do love my son so much and I really do want to spend all my hours with
him. So my art was therapeutic and true. That’s all that matters in the
end. I’ve heard some comments that people don’t want to participate
because they feel their art isn’t good enough. I promise you that your
art is good enough. If it’s authentic to you, it’s absolutely beautiful
and I hope you choose to share it with us so we can enjoy it, too.
