sitting quietly

after such a crazy & rewarding lead up until christmas
i am taking some time away from the studio,
catching up with friends and family,
watching (and crying through) movies like this magical one
and easing into the year bit by bit . . .

as i looked upon a corner of my home this morning
i thought this little still life
is kind of how i feel at the moment . . .

still inspired,
but just sitting quietly,
letting the light of the day cast over me
waiting for the craziness to begin again,
but being still for now
