Over the Top

Okay, so I'll say right now this project is way over the top and something that is WAY out of my usual but I have to admit, I had fun doing it.  I'll also admit that I'm scared of posting this but you know....this is my blog and I have to come to the realization that people will enjoy some of my creations but not all.  I must be a Brave Girl. 
I stumbled across an artist that just rocks my creative juices.  You know the kind of creativity that begins down deep in your soul and you have a hard time sleeping because of the excitement that is resinating inside of you to create?  Yeah, well....Teesha Moore does that to me.  I watched her videos which she graciously has up on YouTube for all of us to watch and be inspired. 

Melody Ross says we should not worry so much about what our art looks like at the end but the meaning behind it and this page sure has some guts to it. 


Pushing PUBLISH now.  Do you ever hesitate about pushing that button?  If so, how do you get beyond that feeling?  Looking forward to hearing from your creative soul on this subject!

Michelle, your page is AMAZING. So glad you are being brave and publishing - and I can't think of a better influence than Teesha Moore for your journaling. She's very open and giving, and her inspiration will lead you to seeing things in a whole new way.

I'm loving Teesha at the moment, too. Your page is great, full of color and life...really you have nothing to fear! Even tho'it feels like you're walking around naked. Congratulations on be BRAVE and Merry Christmas.

I love her! I knew you could do it, sweetie. :-) I think I love her face and the bold background color. Creative Blessings for the new year!

Hi Michelle- I really like your page! I think you need to just go for it and not worry about what other people think. If you want to keep your journaling private, you can always do a flap and not photograph the journaling with the flap open. There are lots of ways to make it safe to post, if you want to get it out in the open. Good for for being brave!
Aloha, Kate

Your page is very Teesha-esque! Great use of color, very visually arresting yet balanced.
