getting inspiration back




Well, I said I would start work and it has been difficult. So long ago since I last cut a print, nearly a year. I drew my pond, I did not know what to do, I planned something, started it and abandoned it. There was a lilly in my pond except a storm cut it down. At night it closed up and it opened during the day.

Strangely, I suddenly started work this evening while my daughter had 6 friends over. After I had fed them pizza and retreated upstairs I just knew what to do and started. This is just the beginning of the cutting. I can only hope it continues to work for me. I don't know if anyone else is like that. I can never plan a print. It just has to happen. Add when it does it is very easy, while before it is impossible. Anyhow I hope this print works out...I hope a lot of things work out. I might have a proof to post in a week.

  1. Georgina, your new garden is beautiful and I can see how it would inspire ideas for new prints. I really like the beginnings of the print you just posted and look forward to seeing it in its entirety!
