Countdown

I noticed that another artist did self-portraits every day on her blog. What a great idea. I can't imagine doing this, there is just not that much discipline in me. I probably do one work a week. These are five by seven inches and eight by ten inches. I do more work in the winter and fall. Spring is my favorite season and I started a ritual that makes winter go a little more quickly. I do a countdown, counting down the days 'til Spring. Today there is one hundred and twenty-three days left 'til the first day of Spring. To me once I am below a hundred days things begin to look a little more optimistic. Perhaps it is a strange ritual, but it gives me hope.
