I just took the plunge…a creative one that is. After years of creating art for myself and as gifts for my friends and family, I have decided it is time to leave the safe zone and enter the world of business. I have just finished setting up an official Facebook page to sell my work; https://www.facebook.com/kittysdaydreams […]
For many summers, beginning when my son was just one year old, we went to family camp. One year, a camper brought a boomerang and in between our many scheduled activities it became the must-do activity for all of the campers throughout the week. It was fascinating to watch this wing-shaped piece swoop through the […]
But don’t let them topple over! It sounds like a line from an old Milton Bradley board game. Growing up for many included the Friday night family games night. I wasn’t as keen on board games like some of my friends were. I can picture one friend’s game collection; it literally filled and spilled out […]
I, like hundreds of thousands of other Canadians am still processing the tragedy that took place last week in Moncton. I created a small tangle, and, for the first time used red to shade with as it is the colour that the RCMP wear. I don’t like my tangle, not for technical reasons, but because […]
I live in a split world. The open part of me sees a meadow as a place for opportunity. I picture children gathering windflowers to present to their mothers. The sun shines and a soft breeze carries the songs of nature back to heaven itself. The closed part sees that same meadow, bleak, barren, and […]
…on the cycle of creativity that is. I have gone once through the cycle. Okay…I have probably cycled through it at least 461 times this week.. While I know there is a cycle of creativity (at least I am assuming there is), I have absolutely no idea of what it consists. I suppose I should […]
I didn’t post yesterday because I hadn’t finished the creative piece I had begun. I found myself headed toward the same thing today. I can’t post things that aren’t finished…that is cheating! I realized that part of being creative is accepting the process itself. At times, this can be even more of a challenge than […]
This is going to be a short post. Not because I am too tired or that I’m trying cut today’s challenge short, but because the piece I created shares more in its 3×3 square than I ever could in a 3000 word essay. This piece represents 15 magnificent minds hard at work. As 15 of […]
…and this has made all the difference. If I could earn an air mile for the hundreds of thoughts and ideas that fly around my mind each day, I would have been able to travel around the world at least ten times this year. Right now Air Canada ticket agents are breathing a collective sigh […]
When I was young, handwriting was something that my friends and I spent hours perfecting. I’m not referring to writing with one’s hand, I mean good ole cursive writing. The first letter of my name is meant to be written with a flourish…it looks so much more elegant. Throw in a fine point brown ink […]
