Friday is the day I clean my studio. It's amazing how much reference material & notes I collect over the course of a week or two. It's less about cleaning and more about sorting & refining what is laying around my desk. When I do this, it helps me clear out my mind so I can create. I think the best ideas come very intuitively and without too much 'working' of a concept but just naturally & organically. They come just as I drift off to sleep and when I'm floating in a pool and when I'm watching my dog roll on the grass. These are the moments I love the most in the creation process.
I have a little papercut to share that came from one of these moments. It is one I created quite a while ago but I want to share it today because it is one of these intuitive pieces. It is a hand drawn & hand cut piece. To put the size into perspective it is in a 4" x 6" frame.
I'm planning to go for a drive to the beach this weekend with my family and I'm sure I'll find some inspiration and beauty to inspire me and my next paper cut design. Here's to a great weekend ahead. Hopefully some wonderfully creative things will be made & enjoyed by all.
