Taking Flight
Over the last couple of days I have been reading this book about discovering your creative self. My dearest friend Mel calls me her butterfly friend because I do so many different things, so I thought I would do the first creative project in the book and do a semi self portrait, the butterflies represent some of the different activities I do. My life coach Amy has worked very hard with me to help me accept myself just the way I am instead of feeling that I should be committed to one activity. I had a lot of fun doing this, as it was completely from imagination which frees up the obsession with getting it exactly right.
I have signed up to a exploring your creativity workshop in the New Year, so that is my plan over the next year.
By the way the colours in this painting are so much duller than the actual one, it seems a photograph can't do paintings justice!
