Many people think that being an artist is relaxing. Maybe for some, but most of the time it's not true for me. It can be very stressful with a client waiting and a painting unresolved and not knowing where to take it next- nothing is working and I can't figure out why. There are times when the solution is to leave, put one's mind and body in a different environment, and stop thinking about the problem that needs solving. Much to be said for breaks, or as Neil Young says, "There's a lot to learn from wasting time."Since when is yoga on the beach a waste of time? Pablo seems to think it is.
