Changing And Growing .....

It seems there is still out there in

blogland , many people who want to change

something in their creative lives , and do

not know what or how to go about it .

I too , am one of them ...

I struggle with all my ideas floating around ,

and most are written down , otherwise i

would forget them ! Needless to say .. Some will not get done -

I know myself ..

Whether you want to find a " niche " of something

that has not being done - and i have mulled this

over and over , and not come up with anything

"new " yet - It is hard ! ... Someone has thought of it

already , when you thought you had a great idea !!

Artists are their own worst critics , myself included .

From having an idea in your mind , to actually doing it,

it can turn out so different in how you imagined it . Then

creating an item , and it changing it`s form in the process .

Sometimes this just happens , and it is a good thing !

So .... what do you do next ???

Go with the flow ? Or carry on regardless ,

knowing inside yourself that you will be unhappy ?

Sherry mentioned this on her blog

that is why i have written this ...

It`s maybe a time to step back and think what I

really want to do , in my own style of creating ,

embrace the changes , and see what i come up with next .

I do not have the answer for anyone out there ..

It could be deep inside you .. waiting to come out..

It`s just finding the push and going for it !!

If you do not agree with it , bin it , and start again .

Do not be hard on yourself for not getting it right .

There is no right or wrong way in art , it is your

interpretation that counts and speaks to you .

Whether it speaks to anyone else - is an added bonus .

If you did not give it a try - where would we and

everyone else be in life ??

On a more lighter note ;o)

Here is a pot of some oregano seeds i planted

2 weeks ago ! I was thrilled to see , seedlings appear

over the past few days - something as tiny as a seed

growing and changing ....

And my first chilli plant , gifted from a neighbour ,

now 7 inches tall and the first signs of chillis appearing !!

The little bell shape just underneath the leaves !!

And lastly .....

Another altered library pocket ...
