This Blog is a place where I can share the creative ideas and projects I have been working on. I am a busy mother of 5 who works in a large and dynamic education setting so I use my down time to craft, create and swap around the world.
I do not and will not ever express myself an expert in anything I produce but really just want to share with like minded people. I often utilise the ideas of others and change them to suit my personal goals.
I am thrilled if you like what I share but share for personal expression and a record of my creative processes as a digital form of journaling.
Please follow if interested as I start to build my digital journal.
I start with this art journal page that I created as part of a Lockdown Isolation Days journal for the 2020 pandemic that has hit the world.
I have a love of Julie Nutting and her dolls and so many of my projects will reflect and use these dolls to represent the ideas behind my art or creative projects.
This one is to remember the trials and exhaustive process of communicating using Zoom. Whilst seeing people face to face in the platform, it also makes it hard to get the underlying messages that we all take for granted - body language, emotional response, one on one interaction.
Using an old book, I started with Gesso, then acrylic paints then markers. I used Copic markers to colour the dolls and Clarissa - the teacher in the bottom left - I stamped and fussy cut papers to represent the school aspect of this page. Being an educator who was forced into online learning by a disease that has swept the world, this page will be a reminder of this time and all of the accomplishments achieved by the very talented and dedicated people that I work with and who also educate my children during this very new and unprecedented time in history.
Thanks for taking the time to look.
A place to display and record my creative projects. A way to creatively redirect and recharge from the stresses of the world. I do not claim to be proficient in any or all of the crafts I work with but this is just my place to reflect and share with those who are so inclined to join me on the creative release journey.
