I’ve been sick this week, which means that I have been in bed either sleeping or resting on the couch. As a nice bonus, I have had some time to draw and look what I discovered on the page!
I love my unicorn.
Believe it or not, this image was inspired by a clasp from a beaded bracelet that I made a week ago. I love black ink pens and this drawing just came to life.
I am not sure if it is truly finished. Maybe there is more, maybe not. That’s the thing that I love about creative expression, I just need to wait and let it come as it is meant to be…
But my creativity didn’t stop there.
I have another drawing to share with you that is below…

I am not sure what to title this one, but I was watching Supernatural as I was doodling around in my A3 diary and this is what came out.
I think it is very symbolic of new life, opportunity and the creative life force that is inside all of us at all times.
I think it shows a protective quality in the thorns as they safe guard the nurturing internal creative process in the middle.
Again… I am not sure if this one is truly finished, but I am sure that will be revealed when the time is right.
I have to say… this was a crap drawing at first and I really did not like it. I was so disappointed in the beginning but then, out of no-where it transformed into what you can now see.
And that is why I love art. It is a process which is very symbolic of my life and the way that I process events inside myself. I let things be messy and messed up. I wonder how I will ever make it through the moment and then somehow things just work out. I love that. I truly do love that.
Love your Unicorn, Selina. Sorry you have been sick. I hope you are recovering and soon back to 100% Love you, Vicki. XXX
