I didn't mean to leave our model coiled up in the 100 degree heat for as long as I did. I escaped to Vermont for summer vacation and thought for sure I could fit in another drawing session before I left. I'll be out of town again for two trainings, in craniosacral and yoga therapy, so my 100 heads project will be on an official summer break until the end of August.
This photo was taken last week at Kingsland Bay, just a few miles down the road from where I grew up. Kingsland Bay is the essence of summer vacation for me. It rained so much this year that the dock is under water, I took this photo when the sky cleared up enough for an early evening swim. The huge clouds overhead looked threatening but never touched us.
I always have the fear that a project will fall apart if not diligently attended to, that if I don't grasp and hold on to the original plan it will ultimately fail. But another possibility is surrender. What we fear might never touch us. Let's let our model rest a little longer, let's see what comes from letting go.
