As I create and listen, I will be led.

 

Artist Way Reflection

“As I create and listen, I will be led.”

I think this is absolutely a true statement. My artwork will talk to me. Often giving me reflection on upcoming events and past events. It helps me get organized too and think through some things. It slows me down. I can’t do art at a fast pace. It will be too chaotic. I seek guidance from my higher power that I call “God”. I am amazed what he and I can do together. 

I know I am being led but I can’t see the ending. That can get irritating but I trust that God has always know the best way to do things. He will led me. 

God has the Power

 My dreams come from God and God has the power to accomplish them.

I think this a a very true statement. I know I can start my art off with my own ideas and then it gets chaotic. It gets very unorganized and distracting from what I am trying to state. If I include God in my planning, things turn out a lot better. A lot of my artwork I don’t really like until after I have done my mediation. Although I have gotten good compliments on the ones I don’t like. The above art, I hate but Micheal liked it. I probably need to give it to him. To me, this is a very childish drawing and maybe that was what I need to do. I did not have anything to go by on this too. This all came out of my own creativity that was not inspired by another drawing. 

So what are my dreams - to be happy, joyous and free. Sometimes I just need to do what I need to do. Not all my art pieces will I like but it is an expression of myself. This was during a time when I live by a lake in Florida that had a lot of alligators in an RV. We wanted to travel in the RV but that never happened for us. My husband health has started to fail him from the black mold that had set up in it. We had to destroy the camper. God place me back in Tennessee where my family is and Ken’s. It was time to move and get settled.
