A Year in the Studio...

I recently posted the following to Instagram, and received such positive comments and feedback, that I wanted to share it here.

“The most important thing I can do as a creative, is to be open to – and more importantly – to honor and align with the inspiration I receive.

I often see myself as a tuning fork, attached to a radio receiver. The clearer the signal that I am able to convey in my work, the more honest and truthful it is, and the more beautiful it becomes.”

My multi-faceted creative practice, as you know includes many disciplines. Lately I have begun to think I should stop segregating it so much ( Fine Art vs. Fantasy Writing and Illustration ), and focus more on myself as the creative behind it all.

Ultimately my goal is to re-define my highest work as not so much the specific pieces I create, but the process by which they come through to become reality.

Whether the work is a simple sketch, a large painting, an involved cast bronze sculpture, a chapter in my novel series or simply the act of letting inspiration guide me as I live my life and manage my studio, the process is exactly the same.

I hope you enjoy some of these scenes from the last year in the studio where creative inspiration is free to bloom!
