Journal Prompt: Why I heart fall? What are the reasons behind your love for this season? Why is fall so amazing to you??
as i am way behind in posting these, i am going to just start here, 4 prompts in. as i said to Kitty, i am seriously insane about my drawing skills. i know i am not on the level of automatic writing or anything, but i also know that i am not a great artist. this is something i literally panic about when drawing something that is going to be seen by anyone other than my mom or Adi. this is also insane and i have to get over it.
so much of my love of autumn is due to Halloween and D.d.l.M. the first because its all about costumes and candy and kids feeling super crazy for a night. remember that feeling? it was dark, you were allowed to roam the streets dressed like your favourite thing, and then eat a bunch of sugar right before bed! you felt sort of dangerous and crazy, yet safe. Halloween has always been my favourite holiday, which is why i was married on it!
as for Dia de los Muertos... i think it is a beautiful custom and is, creatively, probably my biggest influence. i think the celebration of memory and life is something very positive and i trying to get behind it every year. this is the first year i will be able to really focus on honouring my Grandma during it (last year it was still too fresh and there was too much baby insanity).
i am really enjoying this class!!!
