It would appear that there hasn't been much going on here as far as creative projects are concerned. Does having several works in progress (wait, lets be real, several? Ha, Ha. You creators, know that's a fallacy,) count towards creating? If so, two pine needle coiled smaller baskets, racing one another to a finish. Each is "talking to me" rather clearly so am anxious to see what the next steps look like. A gourd has coats of alcohol ink on the outside that looked like camouflage, ugly. Added a rub of red oil paint giving it a rosy tone and rather like it so collaged the inside with pretties and it's ready to coil around. And then........there is the large alcohol ink tile with a water scene started that could be finished, plus have not added life art journal pages in ages. Remember, the life art journal mentioned sometime back that likely will be finished when I pass on out into the Universe seeking the next steps of my journey.
Oh, forgot to mention that really cute little cupboard wall hanger found recently at the "Picker's Paradise" as my son and I scoured the nooks and crannies for treasures. Lucky for me it screamed my name as I almost passed it by!! A vision emerged, as soon as,
I heard it's voice and in spite of the layers of grease and grime it came home to be cleaned and created. Four separate shelves, two little doors with openings in each door, so one can peek inside and feel the urge to open that door to see what might lie within.
Picking out backgrounds for it's walls, and returning to "Picker's Paradise" to find little inhabitants to speak their stories upon each shelf. Found the cutest, "Be Happy, Don't Worry" bee, for one theme; a very unique, stubby queen for another, a ceramic sheep for the third shelf and seeking whatever the fourth shelf wants to say, plus all the possible accessories for each. My head spinith! Feels sooo good to have the creative juices flow again--really missed them during their absence and have no idea where they went. They are my sustenance, my therapy, and the thief of my time. May they also be yours!

I've been in there too. Lots of stuff to look through so you need lots of time for looking. I have little things too. A little blue elephant and a ceramic cow head with flowers in her mouth to name a few. Someday, someone will use them in something. I too have lots of projects that need finishing. Need to just do them.
