This resonates with me most definitely, and there are times that other ‘stuff’ has to take priority over art making but it’s so lovely to come back to. 💕
Hi Susan, I definitely understand everything you said. Losing my mojo, or even feeling the overwhelm and stepping away form creating for any length of time can feel liberating, but gradually little drops inspiration start to drip into my mind. It becomes like an itch that, as hard as I try to resist, I have to scratch. I think this is what being a creative is all about. Even when we may fall out of love with what we are currently creating (and strop off in a huff claiming we will never create anything again), we can never step away entirely it's too intrinsically enmeshed in our souls. In our DNA. xx
Yes Gaynor it is intrinsically part of who we are! Sometimes I guess it just needs to lay resting sometimes to give is a break. It's good to know you feel that too, that sometimes it's a relief not to be creating all the time. Balance is everything isn't it.
Hi Karen, it's wonderful your business is such a success, it's what we all dream of but I imagine that can be a double edged sword too. Like you say, you rely on that income. That must make you loathed to change anything and your jewellery is stunning.
I'm so glad you enjoyed Judy's course and that the ideas are buzzing. Sometimes we just need to change things up a bit.

Hi Tanya, yes life has a habit of taking over sometimes. We are lucky to have our creativity aren't we 😊
