Decisions, Decisions!

It's that time of life again. That time of year. When I feel the restless seedlings of dreams awaiting birth rustle and crack somewhere deep in my being.
yes! yes! i'm still here!
What shall I be when I grow up? What will it all look like? Where am I going?
and
WHY do I have to know?!
I search the world and drink in her gifts, through others eyes, others' craft. I sift and compare.
" maybe I could do that" or "perhaps that's what i should be doing".  In other words, instead of doing I'm watching.

New Years bring new reflections. I look back at the earth's revolution that caused my age to inch up another number.
The answer is always the same..." follow your art".
The mystery continues...

Art Mom



http://www.kerismith.com/funstuff/100ideas


I love this entire concept of exploration and adventure in everyday living probably because that is how i tend to live my life!
I am also so curious about the mommy article...artists and mothers, creating and creation. I would love to add a blog about this...not the Martha Stewart perfect crafty childhood but more of a keeping it real platform for artistic moms. Its intense juggling all this creativity...i often feel as though i have a million kids, every little doodle and grandiose idea are all "kids" demanding my attention and yanking at my skirt. It can be quite challenging at times because guess what? The real live human kids always come first...even when the planets are all in line and your most amazing masterpiece yet is beckoning you into the studio. I hate that part.
A bit of advice: A wise woman once told me..."your talent will always be there for your whole life, your babies are only young once and need you, all of you."
Yes indeed...my 3 are my living masterpieces that certainly require all of me!
