Miss Doolittle to the stage please...
Ah yes my loverlies. I want a room somewhere - one I can fill with my creative supplies and make mess in (and art!).
How I would love an abundance of studio space with a large work table in front of a window overlooking the gardens – maybe a stream flowing close by where the occasional deer might stoop to drink and herons kindly pose while waiting for their elusive lunch. All my paints and materials could be organised and neat (well, let’s scratch that last part, because we know that isn’t going to happen!), but there would certainly be enough space for some separation and organised chaos to occur. Cupboards, cupboards lots of cupboards...
The walls would be alive with inspiration and ideas – jottings on the back of napkins, scraps torn from magazines and delicious doodles.
The pc would whirr quietly in the corner whispering to me of digital magic... and all my beautiful art books would be close at hand and well-thumbed....
I'm wishing with the Wishcast crew again - What do you wish to have an abundance of?

The image is a decorated envelope I sploshed together in a rather haphazard manner for the Three Muses challenge which was... you guessed it... decorate an envelope! I wasn't going to bother posting it since it looks rather a mess, but hey I need something to add a splash of colour to this post so why not? I tried using masking fluid for the first time. Pretty cool stuff... I likey.
Somewhat under the weather this week so creative output has been low and early nights high on the agenda. I have to be better by Friday because I am leaving on a jet plane for a spot of culture and fun in Valencia!
i love your envelope. what a beautiful vision you've imagined of your studio space. as you wish for yourself, i wish for you also.
ReplyDeleteI think you have been very harsh on your gorgeous envelope! I love the colours.
ReplyDeleteGet well soon and have fun on your trip!

I can certainly relate to needing more creative space - can there ever be enough? It would take the entire Universe and more!
A day withot creating is like a day without breathing..

Oh I love that song, and one of my all time favorite movies too! The chocolate and big chair would be a definite must for me but then I'd take the art supplies too. ;D
ReplyDeleteI hope your are feeling better!! Sorry I am late with my comment. I am smiling widely because I just love the fishy spaces for addresses and stamp that you included in your envelope. We can always depend on you to be thinking outside the frame. Fantastic!
