A common by product of teaching a multitude of art mediums is…..one thing,  leads to another!

 

 

 

10 Faces of Creativity

 

  1. creativity.  it can’t be caged. it needs to fly
  2. creativity  holds infinity within its hands of Creation
  3. creativity is a realm.  a world within.  a vast,  world  on the outside
  4. creativity can’t be forced. it won’t be coerced
  5. creativity never responds unless its free to soar and return
  6. creativity is a bird in flight, a dove coming home
  7. creativity is diving from the skies,  stomach dropping, rush of adrenalin
  8. creativity has no warden, no border police, no boundaries, no lines to cross
  9. creativity just IS. by virtue of giving of itself freely. without reservation or fear
  10. creativity is a wide open barn door.  a castle drawbridge,  forever lowered

Points to ponder

 

Creativity 

 

Infinity and Creation soar

upon the wings

of the imagination you

allow to

go free

from within

Your Self

 

 

 

 

If, we win the ‘battle’ to Control and Master a thing…..

we will ultimately lose the ‘war’ to Achieve

Freedom Of Expression.

 

 

 

 

 

Mistakes !!!!

 

So What, if I mess up?

If an artwork is not a 5 Star masterpiece?

 

What is the real problem with that?

What if I achieved a 2 Star, and had the time of my life?

and made a discovery to use for the future?

 

 

I’m not afraid.

I’m going on a ‘creativity hunt.’

I’ve got my Muse by my side……

The act of creation, in any media is a fascinating and magical process. I simply love to create. Expressing in color, line, tone, texture - as if, they were words upon a page. Creating a uniquely me, interpretation. Enjoy More of my "one-of-a-kind" expressive art at society6.com/debiriley and, redbubble.com/people/debijriley/shop
