{jumping off the bridge}


Sometimes, if you aren't sure about something, you have to just jump off the bridge and grow wings on your way down.
{Danielle Steel}



So, I've been creating a lot lately. Lots of pieces in progress but none complete yet. I took the leap this last week and ordered my first set of encaustic paints. {eek!} I have been wanting to try these for a couple of years but could never justify the cost. Especially since I didn't know what kind of artist that I wanted to be. In my "listening" {my word for the year} to my artistic voice I have found that I am most drawn to, and most inspired by, color and TEXTURE. Also, the time worn, rustic, and tattered...beautiful! Keeping true to my voice, I took the jump and added encaustics and I can't wait for them to arrive so that I can get started! Hopefully, I have finally found my elusive "style" and I am trusting that my wings are growing!


Here's a little sneak peek of something that I'm working on in the meantime...


Stay true to yourself and go create something!

Love,
Jen
