DEVELOP OTHER FORMS OF EXPRESSIONS

August 16, 2011 | 6 comments

Have you ever thought you would like to do something different than your normal form of expression? Creativity is something we can’t seem to keep in a box. When expressed, creativity grows and fills our life with many images.

My main form of creativity is painting and teaching….of which I love! For years, about fifteen, I have been collecting beads. Don’t ask me why as I don’t have an answer other than I love the history of the beads, their feel plus their color and shape. With several boxes overflowing with beads from many countries I finally decided to play. Play is a wonderful form of creativity.

I quickly discovered that creating a necklace filled with spirit required some major thought and, just like painting, required I be in touch with the real me. Anyone can put beads together but giving the beads life is another matter.

Why do something different? Diversity in creativity is like anything else….it requires growth. Our perspective about our creative ability is put on the line…..this is true no matter what new form of adventure we select.

I can’t think of anything more important than growth in our understanding of who we are and our ability to take this innate power to a higher level.

I know you have dreamed of perhaps writing poetry, learning to dance, developing a book. So, I ask you…..what is stopping you?

Here are a few examples of what I have created that have been accepted into my galleries. They are necklaces that have beads from different parts of Africa, Thailand, Afghanistan, China, United States, etc. Each bead not only has its own story but has its own energy vibration.

Let me know what you think……
