Creative ways to run with the possibility.

When you get a good idea, hold onto it and do something with it.

Whether it’s a subject for a painting or an idea for a business, follow the thread of the idea and see where it leads. Some will fade out into nothing, some will be too impractical to pursue but who knows which one might lead to your pot of gold?

Put your good idea into action as soon as you can. Don’t wait until later, because later never arrives for anyone.

How often have you heard someone say that they had that idea years ago and would have been rich now if they had done something with it? Most people have had good ideas that they did not pursue. Fortunately it doesn’t really matter because you live in an infinite universe and there are endless ideas and possibilities.

All you have to do is capture some of them before they fade from your memory. Grab the visions that excite you and play with them until they become a practical possibility. After you have practiced this for a while, you will find that it is second nature to have a good idea and to do something with it.

Over and out. Now it’s up to you!

Creative ways of doing it your way.

Sometimes, don’t you feel overwhelmed by the amount of information available? Well, in truth, you probably need very little of it. If you are pursuing a creative interest, you are better off trusting in your own feelings and your very individual artistic leaning.

It’s not necessary to understand the workings of an engine before you can drive a car. You don’t have to train as a doctor if you want a healthy body. You don’t need color theory and a knowledge of different exotic mediums and techniques before you can be an artist.

Look at what you have right now, around you and express yourself with that. Art is a creative expression right from the beginning. You are free to choose your medium and the way you want to use it. Invent the rules as you go along, there are certainly none at the beginning.

As long as you know what you want to achieve, then go about it in your own unique way. Art is personal. Art is an individual expression, a unique path chosen by the artist. Artistic excellence is not achieved by following the same old worn path from artists of yesterday.

Not only should your art be unique but your technique should be also. Art does not have to be complicated by a need to understand the processes and materials. Art is about self-expression. You are free to do what you want to do because that is how you choose to do it! If somebody disagrees, give them a one-way ticket out of there.

Over and out. Now it’s up to you!
