As being the 'artist's wife' it's important to me that Michael makes sure that he is exploring and creating. It's easy to let time go by and suddenly wake up one morning and realize that you have just spent years creating artwork based on public demand not on what you want to be doing.<BR/>It's a balancing game.<BR/>My heart tells me that an artist needs to go where their inspiration leads them. To follow those streams in their being that lead them to who knows where. <BR/>I wish I was there, I would sit and chat to you about it.<BR/>Hold that thought, will ya? I'll bring the wine.madre-terrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16663081550495404836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2651271175118084964.post-62392875453579986442008-09-06T16:09:00.000-05:002008-09-06T16:09:00.000-05:00Love the barn.

I am determined (sort of) to have a little studio/gallery, -no matter how small-if and when I came into retirement. That will for sure keep me away from the couch.Julio Rodrigueshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12946421460150999412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2651271175118084964.post-43048555342866133712008-09-02T15:32:00.000-05:002008-09-02T15:32:00.000-05:00Dad, you are so deep!

If you think of creativity as god's inspiration, god's gift, and you follow the inspiration onto a path of creating than that's it - that is the purpose. God doesn't care if you are the best artist you can be. God gave you two gifts (well, there's also me); the gift to create something beautiful out of nothing, and the gift to make people feel better. You are supposed to do both and you do. Post that. :) SaraWilliam F. Renzullihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13037130691356963660noreply@blogger.com
