Something's Coming...

Something has been brewing, creatively, for quite some time now...
Not sure what it is, but I have been feeling it for a while.
I stopped painting full time several years ago and have since created a collection of jewelry...which has been my primary artistic and professional focus since then.
It's been great and I continue to enjoy crafting jewelry but I have been feeling like there is something new about to bubble up...It's hard to explain but if feels like a stirring inside.
Anyway, above is a sneak peek at some miniature, "Goddess" sculptures I have been playing around with. Are these my new creative path? I'm not sure...
More on that soon...

Having a Blog - My "Why"

I have always struggled with the concept of narrowing my focus. There are just too many things that interest me creatively and way too many mediums I enjoy working with.

When I sat down today to write a blog entry I felt a little stuck...so I asked myself "Why do you have a blog?".

I had a flicker of worry because I didn't have an immediate answer.
I worried that my blog is too "all over the place" and that I don't have a specific target audience.

After being still for a little while I realized that this blog is about me...me, the artist.

"Me, the artist" IS "all over the place" so it actually makes sense that my blog would be too!

The entries are simply snippets of my artistic endeavours, useful tips that I have discovered or adapted over the years and anything else that speaks to me.

That's it...

Enjoy!
