Encouraged by an article in Cloth, Paper, Scissors, a mixed media and artistic discovery magazine published by Interweave, I have set up my first blog. In the coming days, months etc. I hope to keep up with this on-line journal about living in the realm of art, while working to keep a roof over my head and food on the table. I am also a woman of a certain age that finds all of this new technology and means of communication more than a notion to maintain when of course I would rather be working on another art piece.
Today after working in a daily bread type job I came home to find myself compelled to do mending that has been languishing for months ( can we say years) Its all done, I can now add it to the 1001 ways to avoid creating art. But the very sacredness of doing the mundane leaves room an openning to develop the next piece, dream about the colors, medium and techniques needed to create it.
Now its time for bed and I find myself writing about the very simple tasks of my life.
I am optimistic that the mundane goes hand and hand with the sacred if I but see it that way.
More later, Blessed Be.
