Inspiration
I am often asked what inspires me and my answer is life.
With that thought I wandered around my garden – it is the ordinary that is extraordinary – everyday life, travel, the beach, family, all the good stuff that me makes me happy.
The secret to a creative life is to let your intuition, curiosity, and soul capture the sparkling magic that surrounds us in our not so ordinary lives.
When I look in the garden I see colours shapes, textures, layers, fabrics, ribbons, stitches, yarns and so on.
I don’t try to create a botanical drawing or an accurate depiction I create a feeling, an emotion, an interpretation. It is an expression of what I have observed, listened to,
sensed and carried in my hands, heart and head, it is a possibility.
Inspiration
I love old cities and old doors, I love narrow laneways and stories
captured and whispered from secret gardens.
Thats pleasure I am not quite sure of my direction yet with the blog but it will be evolving as I do.
Love your work Michelle and know I will enjoy your blog enormously. Thank you for your generosity in sharing so much with us..
