I sketched this in the period between Christmas and New Year. A time of eating too much, watching films on TV, going for a walk when the weather allows. And not much else. Maybe it's a reset. Or a time for reflection? But this is my first year without setting goals or looking back at the year. I tried. But it just didn't feel right. I'm not 45 and planning the rest of my career anymore. So I've decided that I don't need to prove anything to anyone, least of all myself! Maybe some of the films and programs I watched over the holidays had an influence on this new-found attitude. Kind of "you live, you die, just make the most of everyday, nothing you do will change the outcome". Also, I decided I would not send lots of New Year's Eve messages. Instead, I just replied to the ones that came. Not many. Interesting.
I picked 4 watercolour pencils that appealed to me and drew literally what was in front of me, including my reflection in the mirror.
