Inspiration an Exercise in Creativity


What these photos really are doesn't matter.
I took them using a small toy that breaks up and multiplies what you see.
My question is: What do you think when you see these photos?
This then becomes an exercise in creativity.
In the first photo, I see dawn. It's that soft light before the light of day
explodes.


Here I see a cityscape at dusk. The buildings begin to be enveloped in the dark.
The sky is pale as the earth is swallowed in the night.


This reminds me of a soft jacket I used to own. It's not, but I remember
the quilted jacket and how lovely it was!
I used to enjoy wearing it.


Here I see a cathedral window with the sun flaking through
the stained glass windows.
Each panel has a meaning.
This window reflects the heart of the window.


Here I see candles burning in a church.
A blue fire escapes from the candles
with it's flames shooting up beyond the parameters of the
field of candles.

This photo reminds me of my faded jeans.
The colors range from dark to light blue
as they do in my jeans,
even the tight ones!


Here I see a cells with their nuclei and other parts
interacting as they begin to divide.

Now, I'm interested.
What do you see?
Can you use these photos in your form of artistic expression
whether it's bead making,
quilting, metal smithing, jewelry making,
painting, designing.

Email is Great!

A Lovely Story About Me
One day, long, long ago, there lived a woman who did not whine, nag or bitch.
(That would be me...)
But that was a long time ago and it was just that one day.
The End.

Yeah or Nay? Iced Tea in the Winter!


I get it. Minnesota winters will put hair on the most delicate of chests.
50 degrees is considered tank top and sandal weather. So, why is it getting more difficult to order iced tea at a restaurant in the cool months of the year? Beats me! Restaurants are taking it off their menus!

What do you think: Yeah or Nay for iced tea in the winter?

When I Wore My Jewelry Today


I decided that I was going to treat myself to Perkins pancakes today, so, I also decided to wear a couple of pieces of jewelry that I am going to wear to the Bead and Button Show this year.
Now, there I know, I might get looks, but I also know that people will laugh and enjoy.

I think that's what might have happened at Perkins today, though. I had 4 different waitresses, which is odd, because Perkins, like a Denny's, usually only gives you one waitress at a time.

One seated me. One took my order. One brought me my tea. One brought me my pancakes. Each one managed to take a good look at my necklace and eye ring. I sure hope they enjoyed it. I know I did. The experience even gave me a blog topic.

Now, how did you find humor in your day?
