Create from a Place of Love

Sometimes the muse is here for us and sometimes she isn't...comes with the job description. One of my Artist friends mentioned he was in a creative slump the other day, that he was just too tired from the demands of his "real" job to create and was searching for ideas. I think as Artists we are always searching, always observing and storing away bits of life's ephemera in our subconscious that we don't even know are inspiring us until they manifest themselves on the canvas.

This weekend, I wish for all of you the opportunity to explore, and to have fun doing it. Explore and then create from a place of love. "Enjoy the process," is a phrase I often tell my students. Because, after all, isn't that why we create...because we love it?
