Collaborating

Some work is best done in silence...time when you can shut out the outside world and truly focus on the project at hand. I often like to work that way.

Other days, I need to be with other creative souls. I've been looking forward to some creative collaboration. Today Judy is coming to town. I love the way artists improve my vision...letting me see the world in ways I had not considered. Judy reminds me what a wonderful skinner blend can be found in the sunset. (If you don't know what a skinner blend is, it might be time for you to play with polymer clay.)

I am looking forward to a few days of work and play. We wanted to add some finishing touches to her new DVD. But I also want to find time to clay together and enjoy a sunset or two.

Art is everywhere

Everyone has an artist lurking inside. Some people deny it. They tell me that they cannot draw or paint or sculpt. Since when was art limited to the tools of our ancestors? Today artists wield anything from a paintbrush to a computer keyboard, a saute pan to a camera. I've seen art in so many different forms. Blogs are a part of art too...the art of self-expression. So here I am. Expressing.

Where is here? I am fortunate that I live in a beautiful place along the California coast. Art is all around me...in the sound of the surf or the fog that often hugs the coastline. Mother nature is the greatest artist of all.

If you want to see me express myself more, go learn a bit more about my company, PageSage.
