Inspire Me Thursday: Circles

This week let’s be inspired by circles. A round canvas… circular elements… round tools? Challenge yourself to put your own unique spin on this week’s topic.


I love taking the ordinary objects sitting around the house or anywhere and making them unique! I love to getting close up and cropping out what I dont want. I bet you can't guess what object I used.
Edit: You know those little hand held contraptions that remove the little pills off your clothing?..I call it a "fuzz-buster" I bet you see now...

Studio Friday: Striver or Seeker?

Which one are YOU??Do you know exactly where you are headed and go to your goal in a super straight line which makes you a "Striver" and have you always known from the beginning? Or do you start out now quite sure what or where or how and go through twists and turns making your path longer and looking like a criss crossy chaotic kind of path that eventually will lead you to a place you love and that fits like a glove in the same way it does the Striver? In that case you are a "Seeker". Neither path is right or wrong or better, they are just different.Does your studio space or art itself maybe reflect this in any way??
I tend to think that I'm a seeker. I've always liked art throughout gradeschool and even into college. I would also say life circumstances has had a bit of play in the different directions I've gone. I know what I want to do and the ideas I have created...it's how to get there and "strive" to achieve them. I tend to see the Big Picture (or end product before it ever evolves) All I ever known or wanted to do is be creative and use a camera.


From ideas in a book to photography to display...
I guess for the past year it's been a year of seeking for the passion I love.
