May. 12th, 2019 09:08 pmWe happened to catch part of the movie Split on TV yesterday. (Not sure when we came in, but we watched to the end.) Last night I was dreaming about it - I was 'the one who got away', being chased, and interspersed with the running were images of my father in hit hospital bed in his bedroom at home - where he spent his last months dying of lung cancer. The white of the sheets and his t-shirt, eith only the sickly blue-white of his skin breaking it up was so clear and memorable.
Why did I have to remember that dream?? I rarely remember my dreams after waking up, but I'm afraid that one will stick around for a while.
The West Austin Studio Tour is this weekend and next weekend. We went after doing my Daughterly Duty on Mother's Day (deliberately, so we could keep the visit short), and it was so fun. and inspiring. :) One artist was sitting in her booth with a large crochet hook and an even larger ball of 'yarn' that was actually cut up strips of old sheets. We chatted for quite a while about what she was doing (making rag rugs), where she got the materials (Goodwill Blue Hanger), and the crochet process specifically. She even offered to teach me how to crochet if I came by next weekend! So I'm trying to figutr out something Himself can do while I'm there so he isn't hanging around being bored while I learn a new trick. LOL
There was another artist, who goes by Deadly Creative on the Internets, who specializws in photographs of old, abandoned buildings (and a few other muy interesante things. Amazing stuff - www.deadeadlycreative.com - go there or on FB to see her work and be amazed. AMAZED I tell you! Nest part? She was wearing the cutest dress from Hot Topic - a light colored fit and flare, sleeveless and laced up the back, with spiders and scorpions printed all over in black. LOVED it.
I came home feeling inspired, and full of so many ideas, and itching to get back into creating things. Hope I can actually translate that into movement.
