Possible Dreams... WIPS






Sometimes I jump the gun on creativity and don't plan things out, just dive in and start mushing and mashing clay here and there to get a feel for where I want to go with a piece. The two forms to the right are those sort of soon to be creations. I have an idea, but I will let them play out as I add a bit of clay here and there to bring out their personality.
The bunny to the left was rough sketched to give me some direction, and he's coming along pretty well. Can you see the little vest taking shape? He will have legs and feet, but I'm still trying to decide their shape. I'm thinking I will go a bit pudgy, we shall see. I will be heading back home tonight for a couple of days of respite and to get rejuvenated for the return to the folks home. These are all going with me and I hope to have them ready to paint by Saturday. Wish me luck, I may need it! The biggest challenge will be going home and not looking at the chores that may need to be done. Tomorrow will be an all creative day, Saturday we can clean and get ready to come back. There's probably not much to do anyway but I tend to obsess about those sorts of things. Can you ignore the dust bunnies and still be fully creative? If so, how do you do it????

Not me! I can't create in clutter or when there's chores to be done. So I get up every morning at 5:00am. Get myself together first. Then i do my chores and hopefully by 8:00am I'm good to put in a full day of creating. And I always clean as I go. I'm a tad OCD but my house is always ready for company, and my studio for creativity! That's how I roll!

Thanks for stopping by and commenting! I tried to find a blog for you, but couldn't? I really agree with you, it's hard to create with clutter.
