There are so many project I see on-line that I would like to do, that it is sometimes paralyzing. When I get to those points, I try to step back and think of how far I have come in the years since I started the blog and tried me hand at collaging and mailart.
I have evolved from middle school level artistic skill, to somebody who feels they could start an Etsy shop and actually sell something, but won't due to time constraints. But I feel as though I could! And having some confidence in my own artistic interpretation of life is over half the battle.
My style is still repurposing a variety of materials often tossed. Or mixing inks and papers to create things. I still cannot draw very well, and my painting is basic, but I try nonetheless every weekend and most nights to make something somebody else will love.
A little glitzy for my normal style, thus the glare.
2 envelopes made from an ad in a fashion magazine. I wish I hadn't stamped the quote on the upper one, but I will probably cover it with a label instead. Surprisingly the lower one I liked better.
Keep trying to create! It will get easier as your brain lets go!
