Ideas

Occasionally I run out of ideas. Actually that happens every month. There is a cycle. Tons of ideas flow in, then nothing...na-da. Writing down ideas as they appear helps. Then, when brain freeze sets in, it can be thawed by reading the list.

One thing I want to explore again is altered images. It is fun playing with photographs, borders, type faces, antique illustrations and words. Perhaps today I will play.

Drawing and sketching is another outlet. Shifting into other modes of expression often sparks new ideas in photography. Creativity exists in all fields. It is all on the same street. Everything is connected. Tap into one area and you tap into all.

TODAY: Pull out books on altered art. Put the pen collection, inks, watercolor and tinted pencils to work. Activate creativity. Change a photograph. Write a poem. Haiku?

Here's a thought...Perhaps there is an eighth sense? If the sixth sense is ESP, perhaps the eighth sense is creativity. Sounds good to me.
