Painting: Lost in thought

I love to get lost in a painting just as much as I love to get lost in painting. Painting is like meditation, an escape from reality for a while. Minutes turn into hours as I become completely absorbed. It's a great feeling to become so engrossed in creating something.

One of many reasons why creating art is important on a personal level is that you get to take time out from your hectic day, explore thought processes, express yourself and come out the other side feeling rather refreshed - like a crisp fresh breeze has whipped through your hair, leaving you cool, calm and collected.
