The Importance of Play

Today I discovered the truth in Keri Smith's advice;
PLAY! 
Make mistakes
mess it up
confront your inner critic. 
Anything's allowed.
Scribble, doodle, dabble, dip.


I began cautiously and methodically but then shut my critic off and let the colours and textures speak for themselves.


Will probably use these 9cm by 12cm pieces for card making but can see their potential for book covers too.

 

Had fun mixing paper, fabric, wool, gauze, threads, braids and beads.


Will keep reminding myself to step outside my comfort zone and try new combinations.
Anything's allowed!
