Creativity is a type of learning
process where the teacher
and pupil are located in
the same individual.

I am in the process of learning
and growing
and becoming.
This is my GREEN project |
It seems like the more I create
the more creative I become.
And the more
creative I become
the more receptive I am
to the learning and growing
process.
Each day
whether I'm busy or not
I read something about
Art.
From the Summer of Color challenge |
Maybe a new technique
or book on creativity
or finding your inner artist.
Sometimes it's just a quote
or a blog post
or something on TV.
We are in our 2nd week of Color |
I try to soak it all up.
I make creative lists of
all the projects I want to do.
I surround myself with quotes
and uplifting images
to feed my creative
Spirit.
I had a terrible migraine the day I created this |
I am taking classes to
not only learn
new techniques
but to find my
Voice.
What is it and
Where is it I
am Going to?
This was very theraputic for me to do |
To make my creations
truly
my
Own.
She knew she could fly |
I am drawn to Words
and
Birds
and
Houses
and
Flowers
and
Sunshines.
She is perfect just the way she is |
I love
collage
and
painting
and
layering
and
gluing
and
using
Words
in
My
Art
to
Uplift.
