be creative

well i consider myself pretty creative. but now i seek inspiration and motivation. i have a ‘to do’ list but nothing jumps out at me that i REALLY want to get stuck into. just things that would be cool to do ‘someday’.

any body got any suggestions for getting the motivational juices going???

Blegh. It seems like everyone I ever end up associating myself with is creative and artsy in some way. I always have friends who can draw and sculpt and cook and sew and crochet and knit and make models of motorcycles, but I can’t do anything. I made a Gollum-looking face out of clay once from some scrap clay in my ceramics class and it’s crooked and the paint is all wrong. He doesn’t sit flat on any surface and one of his teeth fell off. I am so proud of this stupid thing that I still have it. In the same ceramics class I made a replica of my own hand, which was to scale when I did it but I forgot about the 30% shrinkage and so the fingers look stumpy. I colored it blue for some reason and then glazed it, and I was way proud of that thing as well, except all the fingers broke off for the second time and I just got so sick of it that I chucked it in the trash.
I sometimes draw a picture where you can tell what the thing is that I’m drawing, and then I’m proud, but it’s by no means good. It’s just understandable. I am not creative at all and I never seem to have the money to go out and buy supplies to try new things with.
I put this desk together that I got from Staples. That was very fun and I felt awesome afterwards.

I can’t remember the last time I made a piece of art that was not based on a piece of art or photograph by someone else.

Writing is the only creative thing I’m any good at. I’m not talking about creative writing either. I tend to write drab opinion pieces on politics, sociology, and so forth.

My passion in life has been acting since I was very young. I started working at a young age and have been on and off with my career ever since. Life sometimes gets in the way and the last few years have been challenging personally and professionally. But I have made the decision to start on a new positive path and excited about acting again amongst other creative passions that I pursue.

I think so. I am creating something. Not always something pretty.

and not care what other people think about it

I am trying to create a fairy grotto i have a very large room for my creative photography project but don’t know anything about the history of fairies and how they live is it all together with a fairy queen or are they independent i have found fairy doors for the skirting board they are fantastic does any one know if fairy’s can be twins I want it to be magical so when you walk in you fell like you are part of there world

uhuh

I would like to paint, draw, and take photographs. I like to paint especially watercolors, i’m pretty bad at drawing and would love to start taking some classes, and I’ve been taking photographs. I need to start printing them off and putting them into an album. I would also like to start taking some movement classes, maybe tap lessons. I have been starting to paint and I would like to make it a goal to paint at least twice a week. I would like to make my spare bedroom into a place where I can do some art, right now its not really set up for that. I think that this is a good start though…its something I really enjoy doing but have always had so much going on with college and starting a career it was hard to start doing it. Now that i am more settled i can start…
