The creative journey....

New Beginnings, New Adventures

It has been over a year since my last post and so much has happened since I last wrote. So... we moved to Spain last year and despite a few bumps in the road on the whole it has been a very positive move. So much of what we moved for has started to be realised and we are starting to see, now the dust has cleared, some of the trees. Initially I was not ready to begin to create art again and having a break creatively has helped as I have had time to reflect on my creative journey.

I knew there would come a time that I would want to begin my artistic journey again and with little access to printing resources I started to write down ideas which I kept in a sketch book. These scribbles and notes started to develop into little stories and poems which normally formed the base of my lino images.

It felt as though I was saving the images in my words, but the words had a mind of their own and hence my stories were born.  Now the stories are pouring out as fast as Spaniards say Salud! So things change and develop and I am embracing my new life and new opportunities that it has to offer. Besides nothing stands still and I hope that you will enjoy following how I progress creatively over the next year....exciting times ahead!

Would you trust these pesky rats?
