Stragglers

I have continued to paint the little still lives. I can't help myself. They are bright and cute and bring me much joy, especially in the fact that they can be completed in one paint session (and as my Dad would say, "It's good, I can tell what it is.") These are the last of the fruits that I completed last week....the stragglers.

Straggling is something I know too, too well, it goes along with procrastination. Straggling to arrive, straggling to get up, straggling to get done. It's all straggling and it's not bad.
Straggling is seen by many as a negative personality trait, like procrastination. However, I tend to see it as a more relaxed, slower way of living. When you straggle, you slow down, you see things, you dream things and you are most likely late for everything. Hey, it's the nature of the beast, it's not perfect.

So here are my stragglers. I am starting a couple bigger pieces and changing up the still lives, but I'm sure to still throw in a little fruity joy here and there.

To all my straggly, procrastinating, kindred souls out there (you know who you are)
Go ahead, take your time, hit snooze one more time, have another cup of tea, Life is fast.
And you can always shower tomorrow.
