I am not sure but I think I may have creative ADD. I am continuously jumping from one creative project to the next, from one style to another, and from idea to the next. I really need to focus but how? I can't just do one thing. I can't just paint flowers or i will get bored. So I move around a lot creatively. One day I am painting abstracts, the next day it's bohemian inspired collages with so much color and pattern that it almost just looks chaotic and then I am back to just basic and simplistic drawings.
"They" ( the art world, bloggers and other creatives) say that you gotta pick a focus area and stick to it at least for a while. The problem is that I get seriously bored. I can't just stick to one thing. I will get incredibly bored. So I like to cal my self a bohemian artist......an expressive artist....an artist that loves lots of colors (preferably bright), lots of patterns, and lots of expressive marks. Maybe my art gets crazy sometimes but you know what? I gotta be true to myself. I am who I am and I need to embrace it. In other news.....I am trying to kind of focus my art business and give it more direction.I put a binder together and decorated it with my aesthetic and tried to make this organizational tool really creative. Inside, I have my business goals, my creative plans, and my many to do lists. And below is my really messy kitchen tables. I keep my pens, markers, color pencils...etc on the table and create art whenever I can. My husband gets mad but oh well. I like it like this. Well hopefully I can get a bit more focused!
