As I have mentioned before, my word for this year is CREATE . Painting with watercolors is one area in which I have been experimenting. Michael's has a really inexpensive line of art supplies called Artist's Loft . I bought the watercolor paints and a few brushes as a way to get started without much investment. (Everything is around $5-$10.) Being a part of Alisa Burke's on-line class called Create Daily , has awakened my senses to the many opportunities to create quickly . Sometimes we get caught up in the idea that we must have large blocks of time set aside to be artistic . Surely, we think, it takes an afternoon to paint, collage, journal or compose a few lines of poetry. Well, if you are seeking perfection, it does. But if you are seeking to revel in your simplistic ability to create something imperfect instead of nothing at all , there are moments of creative inspiration everywhere you look! On this particular day, I opened my daily poetry em
What a beautiful quiet moment!
ReplyDeleteMisty! So nice to meet a fellow North Dakotan this morning! Even though you are no longer here, it sounds like the ND spirit is within you. And a coffee-loving Catholic as well?
