details


Details.

So much of the work I do comes down to the bitty details.  I wish it didn't.

I like the dreamy-sparkling-creative ideas that swirl around me and the digging-things-up groundwork in projects.  I love photo shoots, all the funny faces and windswept hair.  I love trying to find ways to see a family "in their space and light".  I love sketching out ideas, the weirder the better, and finding the perfect color of paint to fit my mood.  I love meeting people, discussing projects and finding my mind a-buzz with inspirational chatter.

A great deal of creative life is that kind of work/play~ but the rest comes down to focus, discipline, and details.

Yep, the deets.


Thinking through projects as they unfold, I have to have a notebook handy.  I keep a list with me of specifics, sometimes in the creative process I can loose the original ideas completely (and they are often the best ones!).  I also rely on it for all those bitty details that have to be done ~ brush your hair out before you go to the post office (lol!).  


Thankfully these details can be worked through.  They are important to my work because they provide the consistency that I always want to provide~ I just need to hire three people this week!  (I wish!) 

Are you blazing through your creative details this week too?  We can do this, me and you!  



For all of those starting my newest online workshop "The Art of Wild Abandon -- Bless this Mess", I am so happy you are here!  We are going to have a wild few months...I know how these projects lead into other projects...you should see my studio this weekend!!!

love & so much woolly goodness~
