Technique
This is a technique that I use fairly often when conceptualizing designs. I find a source of inspiration that touches me, draws me in, and awards me the opportunity to create unapologetically. This concept is something that I am very passionate about. Creating for the sole purpose of just being present in the moment and taking the time to dive into my artistic mind. Whether it is for 5 minutes or all day when the time allows when the moment strikes or even if a material inspires me. I have found that through this process I am unlocking secrets and honing my own personal design aesthetic by just allowing the art to flow through me.
