Just Another Day In the Sunshine.....

Inspiration....it's talked about a lot by artist.

What is it, where do you find it, what does it do? Ask those questions and you will get a lot of opinions but what inspires one person does not necessarily inspire another. So we each have to find our own.

My inspiration is the Caribbean, the sights, sounds, smells...they all swirl together to inspire me to get off my butt and do something! Make something! Create!

This is the view from the front porch. This is what I wake up to every morning. Inspiration? You bet! Go to my website and look around, you'll see the colors that I wake up to.

The really cool thing about living in the Caribbean is that many of us work to live, we don't live to work. It's a very different mindset from the real world and let me tell you it grows on you!

I put in about 6 hours this morning and then decided that it might be a good idea to just take a pizza break. I headed up to Off The Wall for a little brick oven pizza and a couple of beers. Hey, I'm celebrating making it to hump-day one more time.

The beach was beautiful, the water calming, or maybe it was the beer, but anyway, it was a wonderful lunch and just another way to find a little more inspiration. I'm kicking around a few new ideas for some new projects and I think better when I'm hanging out at the beach. There is something about it that makes my mind run wild. New ideas and new ways of thinking about things just seem to dance through my head when I'm at the beach.....or like I said, maybe it's the beer. Either way, I love to kick back and let the new ideas flow.

You never know what I might try next.....LOL! Life is a lot of things around here, but boring is not on the list!

Update on the headless wonder.....she is still headless. Still no styro heads on-island! Good lord where is the WalMart when you need one??? I refuse to wrap my head in plastic wrap and tape and wait for someone to cut me out of it so that I can form a head without one! I don't have anyone that I would trust to cut me out! All these buttheads would let me completely freak out before clipping me out of it and I know it!

BE BOLD, EAT CAKE, WEAR ART!!!!
