So far I have not succeeded.</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">The more I fail, the more I find myself looking to what really makes me tick artistically; because if the task seems almost insurmountable I would rather it involved a medium that I really enjoy working with. So in failure could I actually be getting closer to what I am looking for?</span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="color: #9fc5e8;"><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span><br />

This Blog will document my creative development; the travel in an alternative direction. The nurturing of what makes me tick, what I am good at and the acceptance of what I'm not so good at. </span><span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">This is the last throw of the creative dice. </span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;">They say that when contributing to a Blog which intends to bring people along for the ride, to buy into what you are selling, then it must be overtly positive; but I intend to wear my heart on my sleeve and yes incorporate as many metaphors as humanly possible into my posts:) </span>Chris.Phttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04158314374260401549noreply@blogger.com0
