Finding my path ...again

 It has been hard these last few years, fumbling along with no clear direction or even an inkling of inspiration. The flood gates have certainly been opened again and I am filled with creative energy so fierce it's dizzying. I'm trying to keep steady and pace myself (so very, very hard) and I'm crazy excited about two upcoming e-courses I'm going to take, umm, simultaneously (whats that about multi-tasking).

The first is Mondo Beyondo and it's sounds so mysterious and wonderful I'm chomping at the bit to experience some serious manifesting of my dreams and goals. 

The second is Kelly Rae's class "Flying Lessons". Words do not do justice to this tour-de-force of a creative soul. I WANT TO BE HER when I grow up. She will only be offering this course now and has no idea when she will be able to host another so I jumped at the chance to hear all about how she has accomplished such amazing things in such a short period of time. If you don't know her, I highly suggest you familiarize yourself with her work. Her art, besides being totally gorgeous, has such a connective quality to it, touching people on a really deep level. Something I feel has been lacking in my most recent work...recent being umm, like 2 years ago. 

I am feeling so grateful and blessed with this inspiration coursing through my body. I'm also reading Kari Chapin's new book ( A MUST BUY) and I am devouring it. It's the perfect book for me right now. I'm all about gathering up my "tools" to start fresh again with my work.  

I used to be so afraid of change, it feels good to embrace it.

I find myself taking this approach to crafting. I am such a multi-crafter/scatter-brain, and there is so much inspiration on the internet, that if I started every project I was interested in I would never finish anything. Now, my free time is still brief, and sometimes it takes me a long time to finish thing, but with this mentality I find myself buying fewer supplies and actually focusing on one thing at a time.

And P.S. I love the little garland you have going on above your couch. Pretty!

i have been in a similar place in my creative journey and can very much relate to the feeling of fumbling and grasping for inspiration. it seems to come in waves, and in those thinner places when the process of creating seems to hold very little momentum and passion, i too just allow myself to sit back, let go, pick up an art/crafting book or peruse artsy blogs and let the work of other artists slowly start to stir up my creative juices. btw... you are one of them :) thanks for the inspiration and i LOVED the link to Kelly Raes class. i think i may take it as well this may. be blessed!
