I have a past experience that I need to get out of me and somewhere else and it is a feeling not something that can be done representational. I don't know how to do this yet but I am studying what I can and following your current pathway.<br /><br />Pam in OregonPJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18157220725685998891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1210759514036256082.post-2124977058337097892012-12-30T18:49:30.649-08:002012-12-30T18:49:30.649-08:00Why choose?

I've found new ideas yield rougher results and further explorations of the idea allow for refinement. It's all good.Liznoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1210759514036256082.post-45635533708082815612012-12-29T14:06:53.486-08:002012-12-29T14:06:53.486-08:00Hi Terry!

Not necessarily bold work, so much as a bold approach, take more risks, have a more definite point of view.<br />good luck!Elizabeth Bartonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13928615247903165719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1210759514036256082.post-42078660433176919282012-12-29T13:03:54.318-08:002012-12-29T13:03:54.318-08:00Bolder!

Your class this fall was inspiring, but the inspiration is taking me someplace different from what I expected!Terry Granthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16650965451863656517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1210759514036256082.post-3928174134178980512012-12-28T13:45:23.868-08:002012-12-28T13:45:23.868-08:00I think that we should constantly polish our think...I think that we should constantly polish our thinking - and that certainly we should boldly keep pushing into the as yet unknown. Even if that apparently looks like a move sideways, or even backwards.<br /><br />I too am trying to push out of a kind of comfort zone, but am as yet unsure where this will go.<br /><br />I look forward to seeing how your work develops in 2013.Olga Norrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10554469124546960971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1210759514036256082.post-68715704598747848062012-12-28T13:25:33.531-08:002012-12-28T13:25:33.531-08:00timely, timely!
