The Artist's Way

"As we open our creative channel to the Creator, many gentle but powerful changes are to
 be expected.  Our creative dreams and yearnings come from a divine source.  As we move towards our dreams, we  move towards our divinity."
-Julie Cameron in The Artist's Way

I believe that when you are doing something you know in your bones you were made to do, doors start opening.  Walls that couldn't move come crashing down, and more than anything else you just feel truly alive. 
Anyone aspiring to develop their potential or explore their creativity must read The Artist's Way by Julia Chapman.  It is a course in honing in on your creative passions.  It's a divine read.

My goal for the next few days is to learn how to navigate and utilize Photoshop. This is my next step in developing my creativity- learning to create beautiful, unique photographs!    Any advice or help would be much appreciated, friends.  I can't wait to share more pretty little things with all of you utilizing Photoshop!  Until then, here's to hoping you stay artistic, even in the smallest of details.
