SARK Time!


I have enjoyed SARK's books for quite sometime now - Recently, I started filling this playbook out with long awaited answers - It seems when you are in create mode, the answers just flow ... I highly recommend this book, fun to put your answers down on paper - Somehow they become more real ... Do you have a favorite creative book that you would like to share?

  2. I'm not familiar with this book. And now you made me think - do I have a favorite creative book? I don't think so. Maybe that's because I still haven't bought them, although I have two or three in mind. :)

  3. Oh, Sonja - SARK (this is her author name) has MANY books - This is only one of many - They really make you think - Who were you when you were a child? Creative? What did you like to do? Etc ... Perhaps this could be a Christmas Gift from me to you ... What book have you been dying for?

  4. There are so many books I would love to read!But the first one would be Alisa Burke's "Sew wild". I will buy it, definitely. I just love everything she creates. And you are too kind K, but the book for Christmas would be too much! And speaking of Christmas, remember our ornament swap? :) It's too early to talk about that, I know, but I just remembered. :)

  5. Yes - I realize that there are things you just cannot access where you live - Does Amazon deliver to Serbia? - Yes - The Ornament Swap is still on - I have to start thinking about what I want to do for you ... Never to early to brainstorm, Right?

  6. Thanks, Sherry - I knew she would be a favorite amongst many - She inspires me to look within, to find that "creative" spark that may have gone dim for awhile ...

Love Story in Burlington, VT ...

It started the morning I decided to visit Muddy Waters (Coffee House) in Burlington, Vermont. I was told by the locals that if I was looking for a quiet place to write and enjoy a good cup of java, this was the place. I entered into a few different level rooms containing booths, cozy benches and chairs. After ordering an Iced Machiatto, I settled into a nice corner bench adjacent to a bookshelf. It was quiet, the perfect seat to get some reading done. My reason for spending a quiet morning here was to work through a few more chapters in The Artist's Way. (Julia Cameron's ~ Guide to Inspire Artists). Upon looking around, I noticed that there was a small, rolled up piece of paper tucked away in the brick wall behind me. At first, I was not sure whether to take it out and read it, or not. Perhaps I have seen too many "Candid - Punked" like shows, and someone was watching my every move. Pushing these paranoid thoughts aside, I reached over, read it and I was elated...

Picture Frame Friday ...

So, These are the benefits of having your own blog - Usually, On Fridays it is Poetry Friday but I wanted to change things up a bit. I thought I would write regarding a question I have been asked quite frequently these days. How do I decide the a photo is worth taking? Or how do I know that it will be a good shot? I came across this photograph (above) and thought this would be perfect to help me explain. Many times I have an imaginary frame in my mind of what I want my photo to look like. Off to the left a bit, off to the right, etc - I also tape the LCD display before I go out shooting. I learned this years ago, and it has really improved my work.  (It keeps me shooting - An average shoot on any given day is approximately 100 shots.)This way, I do not waste time checking photos. It forces you to save that work for when you return home. This way, you are not deleting pictures that may please you on the computer, but not in the camera. Hoping these tricks and tips help you,...
