My final piece of my 6 week Fiber Arts course with Love Art Workshops is complete!!!

I've loved having allocated time for focused creativity each week and it's reminded me how important it is.

For my final piece I chose to do an A3 sized canvas that I painted. I had a loose idea that I wanted to create a piece with all four elements, split the canvas diagonally and chose the paint colours accordingly.

The paint was randomly squeezed on in spots & then rolled out and the pattern the paint formed created the map for my fibres.

It's been a joy to let the wool tell me where it wanted to go & what shapes to form ...I allowed the creative process to evolve organically rather than having the finished piece fixed in my mind before starting and I couldn't be happier with the end result.

I hope you enjoy it too 🔥🌀🌳💧✨

Doing my HICAT course has reminded me of the joy of creativity for creativity's sake 🫶🏻🥰

With thanks to inspiration from my beautiful creative friend I've started a sketchbook to create a little something every day.....who knows what it will include - a quote, a sketch, a poem a doodle or some paint....
but what I do know is that New Ideas will evolve from my different creative moments 🫶🏻

"our beliefs control our bodies, our minds, and thus our lives..." Bruce. Lipton, The Biology of Belief

Which of these images tied to the same belief resonates with you more?

Both of these reflect my belief system around body image - the dark, heavy, rigid, restricted and negative on the left...the belief system that I acquired during my developmental years and the bright, light, happy, connectect, inclusive & positive on the right...the belief system I have worked hard to achieve and grow.
Both are me, but I CHOOSE which to adopt going forward 🫶🏻

Are your belief systems your own?
Which ones impact on you negatively? Would you like to change them?

It is possible and using creative ways to reflect upon how a belief has been formed gives you the opportunity to sit with emotions, challenge & start to change them into something that creates growth and positivity 🫶🏻

Eeeeekkkkkk - Stepping out of my comfort zone and taking the main stage instead of being the supporting act!
Even wrote a Facilitator Bio for myself!!!

Self promotion is not comfortable for me having spent the whole of my life seeking and needing external validation before I could celebrate my wins - I will happily be other people's main cheer leader - fiercely loyal and I still will be, but now it's time to do it for myself too!!
Can't wait for this Moon Sisters Gathering weekend to celebrate Samhain - everyone is welcome - come and explore your witchy side!!
