A friend told me it's probably the psychological/emotional drop from being so insanely busy. He's probably right.
It may also be due to realizing that after busting ass for several months, I have nothing to really show for it. The cost of everything shot up so high, and several of my photography clients have come to me saying their "cash flow" sucks, so now my bank account is more strapped than before I went thru the madness. The last one that called me on monday to complain about "cash flow" got this response: "Yes, I know exactly what you mean because your cash flow problem is giving me a cash flow problem." Asshat. I left that last part off. I would like to get paid someday. ~sigh~
i did do a pretty cool drawing... it was more an exercise than anything truly creative though.

I get that too.
Change your approach.
No good without payment.
It'll get better!!
or at least get 25% down(non refudable) when you do a job so you can keep the cash flow flowing.
Great drawing!
I think most of the country is having a cash flow problem...
Great drawing, you have more creativity in your pinky toe than I have in my whole body...
hope to hear more from you soon!
YOU not getting paid for your effort makes me just................(lots of unprintable stuff, even for your blog). Grrrrr!
As for the picture (really good btw), I'm sure to going to get some exercise because of it, most certainly ;)
Cool self portrait? Relax, take a break. And send me the asshat's adress, I'll send the boys around. Tackle!!!!! roll roll roll hahaha, you are so beautiful.
yea, I'm glad I'm working at a municipality right now.
Moral sucks but job security is friggin awesome.
Also, nice boob shot!
Too bad about the cash flow... we're even starting to feel the pinch here. Nice drawing, tho...
Asshat...some words just make me smile.
I've been a lousy blog reader and haven't made the rounds in a while, but I'm glad to see that you are alive and kicking! I've come to that creatively dead point myself so now I'm just writing every old day stuff.
Makes me wonder just how long I'll have a following of readers. Ha!
You don't charge a fee to read this blog; you owe no one nothing.
Feeling like you owe people something forces you to post, as opposed to you posting what you are inspired to post.
Personally I'm a fan of inspired work rather than cooerced work.
Super cool picture!
Yeah, the economy is biting the fringy, pretty edges of things. All manner of luxuries are taking the hit. I'm gettin kinda skeered.
I thought I commented on this yesterday. Oh well, I must have been mesmerized by the drawing.
The salesmen I work with are having the same kind of problems. The thing that helps them is that a restaurant or supermarket needs its bread and buns.
Great self portrait Kota! You are so talented, lovely and open to sharing, it saddens me that you feel a lack of creativity.
But I know (we all do) that its just temporary. So here's to looking forward to your next creative flurry! can't wait...
Well, if they have a cash flow problem that means there's some cash to flow. Tell 'em to get their asses in gear and let it flow in your direction. ;)
Great artwork, hun.
poor baby
it's a wacky world out there isn't it? but you're a smart lady and you know that. The intersection of commerce and creativity is an interesting place. Hang in, take care, you're still very cute.

The only thing not going down with the economy is me. I'm still up after perusing your last two posts! Haven't made it over here for awhile...though you'd been on hiatus...
Great drawing! You really are so creative! :)
It's a "work crash." You think it's going to be great when it's over, but it never works out that way. I've been there too.
Love that drawing, by the way!
I'll tell you one true thing. The world is a hell of a lot more boring when you're not in it.
I'd like to play with your drawing's tits. As an exercise, of course.
Knock Knock Knock, Good Morning Lakota, anybody home..home...home
