What to do with a long, long winter

The long winter.  How we all have complained and agonized over this magical force that has held us captive in our cottages.  But what can one do about the weather?  Accept it and make the most of the days stuck inside.  

I decided to use the my meteorological time-out to sit down in my studio and create.  I organized, completed, filed, folded teeny, tiny envelopes, and dug out drawings I hadn't seen for a while. . . . It felt wonderful.  And gave me the motivation to come back the next day and do even more.  As I worked,  I got ideas.  Lots of new ideas. 

And so it goes.  I find the best way to be creative is to get going and make something.  Sitting and thinking about making something doesn't usually bring out the best in our creativity.  Just do.  The rest will follow.  Of course with a little help from our muses.  Whoever they may be.  This guy's mine.

 

Believe.  Create.  Enchant.
