Recently as I have begun a more in depth exploration of my own unique creative style, I have come to one conclusion, while I have yet to specifically define it, my style is that of a wandering Gypsy.
It is as meandering as my thoughts.
There is something in an idea that sets my Gypsy muse astir, my fingers dance to an unknown tune and they must follow her.
I have a need to keep creating, allured by the charm of her spell, being a roaming Gypsy, until the idea has become something tangible, my restlessness is temporarily quelled.
For a bit my muse is sated to cast her creative camp and linger there a while, then the caravan is packed and she is off and running once again in true Gypsy style.
My most recent stopping off point on my artful journey has been in jewelry making, long draping pendant style necklaces. This piece, Gypsy Magic, features an old blurry photo of a wistful girl. This is a symbol of my current expression of wishing I could better identify my creative style.
Swirls of antique bronze wire represent the casting of the creative wandering spell I have found myself under on my artful journey. I chose to highlight the color purple, something I don't usually embrace, because it is often used to symbolize magic and mystery. Some believe that by putting a little purple in your life you will increase your imagination and inspiration to its fullest. In this case, it is an expression of the magical mystery of my own personal creative process that I am trying to discover.
I feel the call to wander on and this piece needs a home so I am hosting a give away.
