Sketchbook page, watercolor and pencil
Do you ever have so many ideas that you wish you could connect a printer to your brain? I do. It isn't always that way and I guess it occurs in a creative high. I watched this 20 minute video on fostering creativity from
Maegan Beishline she talks about managing your creative cycle. The highs and lows we all go through and ways to keep the lows from going so low. She is super sweet!
A painting I am working on based on the above sketchbook page. I am not sure where I am going to go with it.
Another painting in progress. Changing a bit.
Trying to take my 3D paper flower wreaths into a 2D collage. Also, some cut paper collages in progress.
The 2D flowers up close.
Letting the light shine through.
