Day 7: Breaking Free

Feet, what do I need you for when I have wings to fly?
-Frida Kahlo

Sometimes everything comes together and you break free of your self imposed limitations.  About two months ago I created this piece as I have long admired Frida Kahlo 's determination to live her life as an artist. It has been sitting on my desk to remind me to break free and fly. Last night all of the bits and pieces I have been exploring came together and provided a revelation. When you know what you will do to create a series of art pieces, it's a great day. I'm not going to share yet, but it will reflect many themes that my blog touches on. I started sketching last night and doing an inventory of what I have to produce the pieces.

It's wonderful to feel as if a crystalline knowledge has emerged, and I am journeying to where I need to be.
