My recent solo trip to the southern Flinders for some peace and quiet, solitude, painting, and nature summed up in 30 seconds!
I’ve learnt to have realistic expectations of myself and times like this. I used to try to do ALL the things and then feel bad about myself for “failing”. 44 years have taught me how to do that differently, and so this much needed time away was magic and I’m heaps happy with all that I did.
Now I’m a little obsessed with capturing the light & shadows on smooth-skinned gum trees, and my phone gallery is just pictures of gum trees 😝
