Repeating Shapes

I haven't been on this blog in sometime because I have been so busy participating in The Documented Life Project, a group on line documenting pages of their life in a planner/art journal.  Huge fun and amazing talent in the group.  I keep learning and applying.  Right now I am copying a lot of folks in order to find my own art and techniques.  It is hard as I find most days I struggle with initiating creativity.  Why?  This remains a mystery to me.  I feel like there is a wall of some sort.  Perfectionism, fear of failure....or just not creative.  I do not want to believe the later.

 

Just playing in my composition notebook.

Art Journal pages - always inspired by the beautiful work I see others do on their blogs.  I just have fun trying to form anything that might look like a familiar form.

God created us to create, to think, and to take action.  I find myself so very often praying that He will open a door or guide me to this wonderful life I live up in my head.  If I sit and wait without creating, thinking and acting, where will I find this open door?  Certainly not on my living room sofa.

We live in a world of dictators, terrorists and even our own government has failed at creative solutions.  They do not even see themselves as created beings to create peace and beauty in a world starving for revival.  Artists, and we are all artists, whether it is primitive, amateur or the most modern technology, are called to bring awareness of the spirit, God's spirit, the Creator of the created.  He created us in His image - to create!

Create something beautiful today...with your thoughts, your words, your actions and revel in the magnificence of you - startling, beautiful you and remind others struggling with who they are ---- of whom they come from!  It's amazing!
