Have been soul searching for the reason I started this blog and it is time to say maybe it was the wrong time, however I have vowed this year to move forward and start to free myself of the ego involved and realize that things are the way they are supposed to be.
My expectations for myself where perhaps grandiouse and I am dissappointing myself in what I fail to produce. I will try harder this year, but erase the expectations so that I can truly free myself and go to the "land of art" where I hope to reside.
At least my soul.
My first endeavor is to out myself. I am a clutterbug and everything I see I want to keep because I might have a need for it. I am in the midst of making a little 8 X 10 foot bedroom (The size of an area rug) into a studio for myself and it is not easy when you have as much stuff as I have accumulated for just this occassion! I struggle with weeding out and deciding that now that I have the room for myself, I may actually USE this "stuff". I'll check back with you in a year or 6 months. I would love to post pictures, but honestly I'd be embarrassed. When I can figure out how to do that, I'll out myself publicly for sure.
On to the Land of Art. Thanks to all my friends to support by endeavors.
You surely can't embarrass yourself among some of US!!! It is your creativity that makes you want to keep it all - YOU (as an artist) see potential & possibility -- if your creative self was less developed -- you might see junk and want to get rid of it. So good for you and your creative vision -- just make sure you have a little bitty surface on which to work!!!
