Can I add feed dogs to your list? Mine are like BA workers - they go on strike when I need them and stay down then when I don't need them they pop up like Jacks in a box and work overtime. It is Sod's law that it happens right now when I am in the middle of a project and creativity is NOT on strike.Marianne (dagmar.eu@gmail.com)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1210759514036256082.post-86641028737534126202011-05-17T16:55:57.329-07:002011-05-17T16:55:57.329-07:00You have the poetic pen as well as the artist'...You have the poetic pen as well as the artist's "brush" - you are blessed and thanks for giving we mortals a familiar diatribe.

Still many - many a-times I think - OMG why did I NOT take up pastels or watercolors?!?!?! Its that whole love/hate relationship we have with our medium. Some days I just want to pitch it all - then the realization comes in like an ole marriage and I say to myself -- "Oh hell, got 20 years in this - might as well stick it out. . . ."Nina Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14316034317827146338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1210759514036256082.post-74099513458942933592011-05-17T10:53:48.434-07:002011-05-17T10:53:48.434-07:00hmmm looks like a Guiness - good ideahmmm looks like a Guiness - good ideaClare Wassermannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13626860487718518591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1210759514036256082.post-53335572032204246392011-05-17T08:18:50.259-07:002011-05-17T08:18:50.259-07:00You're a poet, m'dear!!You're a poet, m'dear!!Jackiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04730298448632087144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1210759514036256082.post-85396246972325804242011-05-17T08:06:21.104-07:002011-05-17T08:06:21.104-07:00And if that were not trouble enough, normally obed...And if that were not trouble enough, normally obedient fingers fumble, eyes start playing tricks and glazing over, and my mind also "goes south" and will not work at all!

When my tools and materials begin to be petulant, I've learned to leave them alone and go play with other toys: the spinning wheel, knitting needles or maybe gardening gloves and trowel. This also breaks the repetitive motion cycle.<br /><br />PS - I really like "Bare Winter!" I like the change in imagery, and I love the shadows.slkunzehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12223416412030879113noreply@blogger.com
