It's nice to have a hobby!

It's Mental Health Awareness Week in a couple of weeks' time, and my work wants to do a few things to mark it.

One of the things they want to do is invite people to showcase their hobbies.  Hobbies are so important in looking after mental health.  They're so good for the soul, and they asked me if I would be able to make a little video of me drawing a picture to showcase te benefits of having a hobby.

The thing is, I'm just not in a great frame of mind at the moment; just not in a creative headspace.  I had a go at doing it last weekend and trying to multi-task for the video, talking and drawing at the same time, was just not working.

So I've decided to go down a different route with an existing 'work in progress' series of pictures, and see if somene far cleverer than me can make them into some kind of video!

So, I'm trying them out on you guys first.  What do you think?  Are they positive?  Do they make you want to take up art?  Do they make you happy?

I'd love to know :)

Lovely work. I agree with the previous comment. I also prefer text and picture based posts to videos. Maybe it's about being able to absorb the material at my own pace. And, yes, it is tempting me to get my pencils out :)
