Checking out...creatively

It is no secret that I love "shows." It doesn't have to be "Television". It is anything I can watch and get into the characters and stories as a way to "check out" and have some down time. I must admit, my preferences are sometimes a tad indulgent, such as my recent obsession with Gossip Girl. But, I also found Glee to be sweet and heartfelt, and shows such as Bloodline or Narcos to be a little jarring to system.

While I love to "check out" during an engaging show, I also make sure that I am checking in with myself. So, recently as episodes of Gossip Girl waft by me I have been collage making. There is something so self-care oriented about watching an indulgent show, all the while painting, cutting, glueing and collaging my way artistically!

Here are a few creations I have made so I am "checking in" while "checking out"!

May you find ways to "check out".......purposefully!
