Drawing:

Strangely meditative and strongly therapeutic…

My mind slips off into a state of transient awareness and I am intensely relaxed and yet almost hyper aware… stimuli pass through me and rather than being interrupted by them, I pull pieces from their subtle effects and allow the rest to float through me, off into the oblivion.

Lines, marks, my pen strokes the page as though it knows where to go all on its own… my hand is guided by the page, my mind engaged, yet fluid…

I drift away.

the creative process:

I am human; I am creative because I am human.

Brain more capable, mind more versatile, spirit more resilient than could ever accurately be given credit for…

Every time I must choose, decide, pick one over the other, I use my creative abilities.

Every time I adjust, modify, adapt, evolve, I tap into the deep well of my creative power.

Every time I speak, form a thought, communicate, gesture, I embody the creativity that lives in every fiber of my being.

I am human; I am creative because I am human.

the creative brain dump

Brain drain, dump the train, stay the track or go insane

Produce too much or don’t create, sometimes I can’t initiate

Love to love, or love to hate, cross the bridge, walk through the gate 

Falling, falling, spinning round, sweep the sky and touch the ground

Alice falling down the hole, whirling twirling have to go

Looking glass from the other side, I stare and wonder what’s inside…

A world, this place I’ve never been… to miss it now would be a sin

Moving forward all to fast, run from now escape the past

Forward motion, smoking gun, hurtling train of creative fun

Screaming, barreling down the tracks, don’t turn around, never never look back

Remember, always, where you’ve been, growth, change, and every friend

Blue, true, wired, wait, buy the book to get the bait

Thinking, looking all around, sight, smell, taste, sound

Imagine, wonder, stories abound, mistakes we make keep our hearts on the ground

Silver linings keep me warm, watch me, save me from the storm

Stress anxiety, my own strife, keep me, sleep me in this life 

Twinkle, sparkle, snap and shine, synapse firing down the line

Idea, realization, truth, me… take the leap and set it free
