Inspiration

I'm on a glorious roll! Creativity is flowing forth. Prints and paintings are in overflowing in drawers, boxes, on the walls, and even in foster homes!   My stash is populated with images that have come from me... yo... moi. Look what I made! I'm in heaven!

It is a major shift; to have ideas and images that are my own, that are derived from what catches my eye, and from sketches I've done. I knew for ages that I needed to create my voice, to own the visual imagery that I use. Knowing is not doing. A young bird, I teeter on the branch, knowing I have wings, and wanting so much to spread them out and JUMP!  I needed encouragement, support and direction. I found all three.  Where, you might ask?

Online classes! I have learned so much in the last year:

 Watercolor Journaling with Jane LaFazio 

Printmaking with Linda Germain

Painting with Jenni Horne

 

These artist-teachers have shared their skills, process and guidance. The teachers and classmates inspire, encourage me to sketch, collect ideas, to try new ways of seeing and of creating. My friends and family cheer me on, giving me the courage to keep on showing, and to keep on making. 

If you are itching to try your wings, check out their classes and maybe I'll see you flying out there alongside me!
