Throughout my life I have been made to feel that my creativity was not worthy in comparison to many others. My greatest wish in my teens was to be able to go to art college but I was told I was not good enough so I would have to do the secretarial course the school had on offer. I was not given a choice.
This decision has taken me down some very dark roads within my mind especially as to my ability and creativity. I have created constantly for years as it is a passion that is impossible to stop and appears in a variety of different ways but always they have remained in the cupboard locked away for nobody’s eyes but mine.
Thanks to the beliefs instilled in me from a very young age I have hidden this creative aspect of myself away and find sharing it to be quite daunting. My biggest fear remains rejection and it is always foremost in my mind when I think about putting my creative work out there for all to see.
It has taken me along time to realise that no art can be compared, each artist is creating what is within themselves, what resonates with their very souls, so why should mine be any different. I am not sure if I have really convinced myself of this if I am totally honest. However, it is true to say no one artist can appeal to everyone, each and every artist creates art that appeals to some allowing for an incredible array of artwork in this amazing world of ours. Hopefully this means that some people out there will appreciate my creativity and spread the word.
Bearing this in mind, I am going to take a huge leap of faith with this website and show you the variety of creativity that I have been finding within myself and creating over the years.
