It's such fun drawing

Don't ask me why I forget how much I like drawing, but I do.

I found myself today in the Mall Galleries thinking I was going to look at a drawing exhibition, but instead having some pastels thrust into my hand and being told to draw a local view.

You know the feeling, I hadn't much time - was meant to be on a mission, sort of wanted to say 'No', but instead, out of my mouth came 'Yes. Why not, it's a Saturday.' and, instead of rushing off, I sat down with my pastels.

Within seconds I was transported into another zone. I was totally focused on the present moment and what I was creating. I was just a part of my picture and it was great.

In this week's Life Club you too are going to be drawing - and it's also going to be a picture of a view, but this time you'll be drawing with circles only and the view will be your future. Each circle represents an aspect of your life and you jiggle them around depending on what you want.

It's a wonderful workshop and totally appropriate for this very unsettling time. Or is that just one perspective? Maybe they're exciting times in which to shake up our lives and see what it is we really can create for ourselves.

So, come along and draw a few circles. You'll lose yourself in the act of drawing and find your future in the circles. And, if you happen not to like drawing, you can always find your future using stones - as they've done in the picture.

See you there,
Nina
