It's that time of year, when the seasons change, the wardrobe gets switched around, the summer travel has subsided, exhibit deadlines have been met, and the Studio calls for a little re-organizing. I am always surprised by the little piles of stash here and there that are unearthed during one of these cleansing days. I tend to be most creative when I can freely try things out and discard to the counter or floor the fabrics that just don't seem right at the time. This translates into a freedom frenzy of creativity that must be followed by an hour or two of "re-grouping" before the chaos becomes too overwhelming.
Today I was surprised by the little pile of new work projects that was buried under auditioned fabrics from the last commission piece that has now been finished. The discovery gives me new fuel for the creative juices to start flowing again. A new season with a fresh start! Curiosity has me wondering where these little projects will end up, what they will look like, and whose wall will become 'home'. Time will tell. For now, I'm back to the task at hand until I can clearly see the floor and worktable again.
