Nothing helps doldrums quite like a cycle-break. I have a tendency to get caught up in cycles and general ennui this time of year, and this morning I felt that usual lethargy creeping in. Rather than bracing myself for a gloomy week lacking productivity and full of sleep imbalances, I'm attempting to nip it in the bud and counteract it as best as I know how. So naturally, I drank an utterly unnecessary amount of tea, picked a few colours that neutralise one another nicely (transparent oxide red and ultramarine blue) and experimented.
This week may end up being full of such experiments, at least until I can get back into my cheery regular routine. Apologies for the poor quality of the photo; the daylight was gone by the time I finished. I'll do my best to take a better one tomorrow and replace this one.
Mental health takes a fair amount of work sometimes, but it is always, *always* worth it.
