While flipping through a magazine last week an image tugged
at me and I knew it was time to get out my scissors and glue…another
SoulCollage® card was begging to be made.
The image was of a photographer pointing her camera at the viewer and I
instantly knew something was trying to come into focus for me. I cut the image and quickly found a
background image that sang with the photographer, but after hours of culling
through magazines nothing else was coming.
I set the magazines aside and asked what was trying to come into focus
for me. I let the question sit for a few
days until I realized the answer had been staring me in the face for the past
two weeks. I’ve been baking like
crazy. The answer was I need to
create. The artist in me needed a voice
and it didn’t matter what medium it was.
I’d been ignoring my inner artist while I immersed myself in mom life. I have to laugh at the signs the universe
keeps throwing my way…it took a while but I finally got it. For crying out loud, my husband got me a
glass making kit for my birthday last month...the universe is literally giving
me things to help me create. I’m
getting better at listening to this voice…it only took me a month to catch on this
time!
Inner Artist
I am one who creates.
I am one who sees
beauty around and within, bringing it forth for others to see, to let it shine
and touch, inspired, confuse and delight.
I am one who gives
life to art in many forms.
I am the creator and
destroyer, bringer of transformations.
Cutting, pasting, gluing, baking, sewing, crafting to bring beauty to
the world and peace to my heart.
