*when in uncreativeness...go to work anyway. work on something to remind myself about why i love to create.
*I'm all about the color and the texture....
*the thrill of creating with a new technique is amazing! (nuno felting)
* sometimes you just have to wait for the right time...( to clean, to create, to enjoy)
*the act of creating is a kind of spiritual practice!!!
* Periods of great difficulty are often followed by periods of great creativity.
*i love spheres, orbs, circles! especially made of wire: chaos of line into a beautiful simple shape.
*life experiences precede art
*i like pockets.
*with color- it's all or nothing.
*sewing paper can be fun.
*i love to felt!
*the more i work without doing collage using matte medium, the more i feel the urge to do so! (fast and physical)
*it's difficult to keep up on changing mediums or techniques every week. some projects (masks) will take longer and veer off in other directions.
*"It is good to have an end to journey toward; but it is the journey that matters, in the end." - Ursula Le Guin
*i can be flexible about some things- such as my current art projects, and very inflexible about others- such as what foods i like to eat.
