A few days ago, I decided to turn a portion of the open garage into an "art corner" for me. I can't call it a studio. I can't call it a crafts room. It's just a space with a "ping pong" table neatly concealed by a brown checkered table cloth.
Everything is laid out, okay, or more like, scattered! Paint brushes, papers, wrappers, glue gun, glitters, boards, bottles, what have you covering every inch of space.
Still, I wish for a room of my own.. You know, a "real studio" with all the neat boxes and folders and containers for sorting things - even a small room would do. It'll happen. But for now, I have the garage and I'm thankful for that. "Where practicality exists, imagination is honed!"
At the beginning of the year, I made a pact to live the "Authenticity Pledge." I haven't given account how close to the pledge I've poured myself into, but I'm thinking that bravely giving life to my creative spirit is a big move forward.
I've started designing Christmas decors. The kind of crystal fantasy rooted in my mind and can't ever be found anywhere else. I'm also dreaming up designs for rose flower showcases and frilly decoupage boxes. Everything tenderly handmade using, as much recycled and organic materials. as possible. My bit in helping the earth.
Will my creations be pretty enough to be given merit? Remains to be seen, but my muse has been very inspiring.
I look forward to seeing your creations Lady and I'm sure they will be just as awesome as you. Have a great week. It's Saturday over here, so have a great Sunday and then have a great week.
ReplyDeletehello, how wonderful that you too are into creating art, finally we get to see here! it is beautiful as is. currently i'm doing art on my dining table, haha! and sometimes i'd fill my jewelry making stuff on a tray and sit in the living room to create little pretties, my studio is the whole house! anywhere i feel like a good place to create. i'm mobile. :D :D
ReplyDeleteGloria: Hi there, Gloria! It's Monday now over here - and raining. Thanks for looking forward to my doodles, haha! I'd still have to learn how to draw a pretty face like you do. :D
ReplyDeleteHello Ali! Just saw your comment. I have this dream studio in mind, hehe! Nothing at all like where I'm working at. And just like you, I'm mobile too. Sometimes I get stuff on the dining table..sometimes in my bedroom. It gets to a bit littered so, as much as possible I have to stick to my space now. Oh' and your paintings are totally cute, haha! I can't draw a cat. "(
