I have completely dropped my blog. I became frustrated with my computer issues and with other things going on with life, it just didn't seem like a priority. I am going to try again because when I was having to post on the blog I was involved more in my artistic and creative endeavors. Most of them have fallen by the wayside as well.
I started after reading a book, surprise, surprise. The premise of the book was to do something artistic or creative on a daily basis and document it. Being me, I took it a bit too seriously. The gentleman who wrote the book had a single focus. He created a skull from some king of material everyday. If I had a single focus that would be easier, but that just seems boring. I know what you're thinking! What about dogs, Jeanette? You love dogs! True, I do. However, I am no where near talented enough to create a dog out various materials. Can I sketch one? Yes, but it's hard. I did try to make a dog's head in a pottery class once. It ended up being a jalapeno pepper. That should give you an idea of where my other artistic abilities lie. So, the plan is to do something creative maybe once a week, rather than everyday, and it will not have to be a major production EVERY time such as quilted table runner or painting. Maybe I will just post a recipe that I created or an idea. Even if an idea doesn't always come to fruition, doesn't mean it isn't creative. I have had great creative ideas ignored by administrators many times.
