Being creative

Love creating art, stimulates my mind and lets me be creative. Sculpting with clay, paper mache and needle felting has been such a stress reliever.

I love woodworking, painting with acrylic and water color, writing and trying out new art techniques. But the thought of getting my art supplies out, creating a work space, and making messes which I have to clean up interfere with my willingness to initiate new projects. I have two painting waiting now and have the supplies I need. In years past I would paint pictures or make a piece of furniture to donate to an AIDS fund-raiser or the arts guild, but they have suspended those benefit auctions/fund raisers, so I don't have the right kind of pressure to accomplish. LOL
