Really gave me some things to think about and use. Glad you figured out you were stuck. Sometimes things feel uncomfortable and you just don't know WHY! Then it hits you (hopefully not like jeri's bus) and suddenly you know what to do next. Hopefully the next steps will feel 'right'.

I like the simpler and cleaner forms and lines as well. Sometimes less is more.<br /><br />Sounds like a great workshop. Sometime I should drive to Portland and take a workshop. We just don't get those opportunities here.Lisa Flowers Rosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03255748017497273887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16634800.post-29764735436963462182012-09-18T07:43:40.909-07:002012-09-18T07:43:40.909-07:00Whoa!

Now you are prepared to start over. Something fresh.<br /><br />I have been dealing with these same feeling for quite some time. Wanting to get "struck by lightning" and find what I am wanting. I think I will have to do as you have done--and WORK my my out of this.Joanne Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01623855664379207620noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16634800.post-1897188084794161682012-09-17T22:28:16.739-07:002012-09-17T22:28:16.739-07:00Terry, I wish you luck on your attempt to work mor...Terry, I wish you luck on your attempt to work more loosely and with simpler forms after your workshop with Elizabeth Barton. The crispness and realistic aspect of your work is what I admire about your art, and I have enjoyed contrasting my work with yours. Example, your four elements were unique and surprisingly different from mine. This is not to imply that either of us was more right than the other--just interestingly different! Mine are pictured on my website: http://www.marthaginn.com Martha Ginnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01609132014556238098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16634800.post-30296915100945753372012-09-17T21:18:24.581-07:002012-09-17T21:18:24.581-07:00Terry, I have been thinking about similar things -...Terry, I have been thinking about similar things - being true to yourself and your own vision. It is so easy to get sidetracked by what comes up or into our minds that is good and forget where we meant to go. I have done that twice lately and intend to honor my vision from now on. Intention. A good word. I will make it mine for the remainder of this year.

Unfortunately life seems to be a bit like a bus, when you have decided you are going the wrong direction, you have to wait until the next stop before you can get off. Okay, stupid metaphor, but you get the drift....stay off buses.jerihttp://www.jeriflom.comnoreply@blogger.com
