Return to Phae

I never did finish with the elemental study that I started so long ago.  I still have the sketch of the Water mask I was planning to make as part of it.  I came across it when I was packing my art stuff away.  I tend to sort when I am packing, and since I hadn't gotten a chance to UNpack my art stuff in our last apartment, it was good to see my work again.  The mask especially spoke to me.

"Finish me!" it said.

I was thinking about sketching out the other elemental masks so that I have a set to work from throughout the year, but lately I've been thinking more and more about water.  Water was where I started, and now that I have moved to somewhere that is SO much drier than what I am used to, it seems even more sacred.  I find myself wishing for rain.  Or snow.  And a hot, candle lit bubble bath!

I miss the ocean.  I miss the rain and the trees.  It hasn't even been a month yet.  Vacations back home in BC are definitely going to be a priority if I'm going to spend a good chunk of years here.

We have a couple of pretty promising houses to see this weekend.  Hopefully by Monday we will have secured and potentially be moving into our own place, and I can begin my Water work.
