ArtyStart Monday: Powered by MOJO

So, I was on the road all weekend…and I had this amazing idea for a SEA inspired illustration that I was itchy twitchy to create. Before, we left, I was diligent. I packed up my sketchbook and my peerless…

Inspiration struck and I was ready to draw… and

BLURF…

NO Waterbrush. NO paintbrush. Wha? I grabbed the wrong zipper bag of supplies. WHA?

BLURF… motivation gone. 

The next day on the beach I saw this guy with THIS shirt. I chased him down to snap a shot (no fear :)). He was really cool about it. What a cool SHIRT. And, If MOJO is like a M– USE… I want to meet HER.

And… Its was OK! I moved on. This painting was going somewhere when I left it. So, I got a chance to revisit it and just think. Instead of DO… Just think.

Then, I fell asleep. HA! In the car. Sitting straight up. I guess I’m a better DO’er. HA!

That’s how MOJO works, eh?

Happy Monday. Hope it’s filled with MOJO!
