Ten days below

The previous 10 days I have been creating, however I have only completed one piece other than my knitted beanies in between paintings. I wasn't sure wether to post anything as I had a plan to post completed pieces only and try to get myself to finish something each day. However I am creating every day and the difference is in being creative and healing through my creativity and art rather than producing finished works everyday. Hopefully by the end of the year I have a completed series? I would really like to have an exhibition.

Below are 10 photos of  the different pieces I am working on at the moment. The 1st one below is a cross that an old friend of mine made me for my 21st birthday and has since been carried from house to house, eaten out by termites, fired, drenched in storms, dried in drought and carried once again to this home. I have cleaned it and now revived it by wrapping it in wool and it now has a prideful place to remind my of my faith inside the house. It has always been outside the house and now I've decided to bring it inthe home. As my faith is an important part of my whole being and I believe my creativity is a gift form God, it is important for me to have an object that signifies Jesus dying on the cross for me to have life. Don't worry you won't be reading sermons here, hopefully just seeing painting and drawings more often.
