Depressio

I suffer from depression, which is largely controlled by tablets. Having a hip replacement and fluid on my knees doesn't help and no I'm not very old I got a bone disease called vascular necrosis. I have generally been feeling relatively happy of late and have enjoyed my involvement with art. However I have suffered from odd stretches of melancholy.I think I may have found the cause-it's when I have painter's block and cannot think of anything to paint. This was not helped by a disastrous oil painting:I was too impatient to let the colours turn dry to the touch before painting the next layer. My lesson learned I now have an oil and acrylic on the go at the same time and for some reason it has taken this long to realise that the internet provides a rich source of material…my mood has improved greatly.
