I've been so busy this year with my bellydance competitions that I havent had any time to get to my paper crafts. Even though I have been on a winning streak, I still miss the creative outlet of making things. In fact now that Im days away from my final competition this season, I couldnt resist any further and started my art journaling again.
It actually helps to clear my mind and body of all the hard physical work that goes into creating a choreography. Something about the colors and the texture...the relief that I get from making something with my hands that is visually pleasing helps me to get back on my legs and create a visually pleasing and meaningful choreography.
Particularly when I start to feel like my focus is puttering out, I go to my art table and create something :) Then I feel ready to go to my dance studio and create something!!
Sigh, I will be posting some pictures soon of some of my recent creations. Nothin too fancy but I like it :)
The hold up is that my old camera is dead so a new one is on my bday list! or maybe I will make a video...I have a Flip! Anyway, nothing will be done till after September 5th as thats when my final competition takes place.
Untill then...Cheers!
