My Creativity Resolution

I will suspend the rules in order to explore
I will explore in order to play
I will play in order to create pieces that express myself
to venture beyond what I have been taught
to open doors I did not know were there
to immerse myself in color and form
to cross over, to prod, to swerve, to jump
where white is not white
where black is not black
where even gray is purple

Pictorial hooking with Jane Halliwell Green

Jane Halliwell Green (who writes Jane's Green Art blog) has a new book on pictorial hooking that is coming out soon. She is working on developing a video to include with the book and she has put up a trial run on YouTube where she shows how to use prodding effectively in landscapes as grass and to give distinction scenery. I will add her video to my virtual classroom. Her book can be pre-ordered at Amazon for a substantial discount: Pictorial Hooked Rugs by Jane Halliwell Green. It looks like it is going to contain a bunch of new ideas and artistic tips for making pictorials pop!
