The same creative possibilities that widen your visual vocabulary, can also overwhelm and stall the creative process. At some point creative play may border on procrastination. When I get a bit lost, I can ask why the BIG IDEA has come, what is its purpose. If I have already been given my marching orders, and have just lost sight of them, moving from gathering and making into action helps me refocus. It is now time to take the materials and elements which have been created and transform and compose them in a manner that will best honor this BIG IDEAS’ message. A message of new life, hope and beauty. A visual presence that will quiet fear and shed light even in dark places. There is more to the story . . . stay tuned.
