With thoughts of this month’s theme “home” on the Creative Every Day site, I created a vision board while pondering this theme.
I find that I am most comfortable working from home, playing, creating, and organizing. Home is really where my family is…the actual “house” structure is lovely, but being anywhere with the people I love, makes it “home” for me.
I am looking toward many new beginnings. Doors are opening and windows are giving way to new ideas. Journaling and a nice cup of tea center me each day. Letting go of emotions that overwhelm me…letting them gently pass through, acknowledging them, and moving on.
Peace.

Experimenting with 3D mandalas. Dreams of copper I have written into my dream journal are a vivid rememberance. Also, the idea of a compass…direction of my creative journey…have been added to this mandala.
Plus, I just like the “organic” exploration of different mediums in a circular form.

I created a video for a (closed) on-line course I am running for my work. I thought I would post it on my blog, here, as I think it is encouraging in and of itself.
If you are reading The Artist’s Way, and are looking for some encouragement, feel free to connect here in the comments. I have discovered that many people out there continue to work on their creativity using this wonderful book. So, here might be a place for connecting at any time.
