damusings: dry wells, dry spells

Sometimes the well is dry. You know the well I mean.  The one we dip into to nourish our creative self, to replenish our physical self, to buoy our spiritual self.  I’ve been feeling parched for weeks – could you tell?

    I don’t go on facebook so I’m afraid I don’t know what you might be hinting at but I’m having a really low time too and I just wanted to say that yes, I certainly will be waiting eagerly for your next post and that DAMuse is one of the few things that are keeping me going and thank you very very much. I wish you all the best xxx

    Susan- take a break- take whatever time you need to refill your creative spirit. My world will not end because there is not a post. Maybe, when you can, try to do this for yourself, and just forget about the readers for awhile. Sometimes, when I feel the “tugging” of my customers, I cannot create at all. That’s when I turn my back on them for awhile and just create what I want to create, without outside influences. It’s probably part of the ebb and flow and I am sure your spirit will return- bigger and better than ever!! I am taking the day off- no phones- no work (unless I want to) some meditation- maybe some yoga- It’s just a day for ME. I will be here when you get back. Lisa

    Hi Susan,
    You may think that you are sounding “dry” but I am still inspired by the artists you find and all the work you do to help the rest of us fill our own well! I check out your site everyday before I go into my own studio to “play”…maybe you just need to take a couple of days to just get your fingers on some polymer or collage items and just play!! I hope things are going well with your project (yes, I am following on facebook…maybe that’s why you are feeling “dry”? all that work and no play makes Susan…..(fill in the blank)…hang in there, Kelly Russell

    Oh Susan, I hope you didn’t think I was cracking the whip, I just meant I think you’re wonderful and I really appreciate all your posts, they’re so very inspiring and lift my spirits so much and of course if you need to take time out please don’t feel pressured by people like me! I was just trying to say thank you so much xxx
