So the new year has begun and I am having trouble shaking off the difficulties of last year. I know I need to just move on, start anew but my anxiety is high these days. I am not sure why.
The only thing that keeps me focused and calms me down is creating. I am not sure what I did without it in my life. I need to get lost in something. I need to create something from nothing, I need color, grunge, love.
Yesterday I bought one of those olloclip lenses for my iPhone. I love macro shots and this little lens clips on your iphone and allows you do shoot macro as well as wide-angle, and fishbowl. The above image is a macro shot of a very small pendant I wear. I used snapseed for the altering affects.
What I loved most about it was getting lost for over an hour in the world of digital art.
I loved getting lost in love . . .

Sending love and peace to you. We can all use that.

ReplyDeleteKeep busy with creating; it lets the mind wander peacefully and keeps other things at bay.

I am so with you these days, Cathy! Anxiety is high - not sure why! It might be the time of year or the weather. But, like you, when I create, it all calms down for a while.

Hope you are recovered from the flu!! Love, Silke
