wow. yes, who is the C...thanks for this post, too. <br />wow. yes, who is the Creative Woman? i struggle with this. i sometimes don't think of myself as "creative." that "good" artists with great "techniques" are the creative ones...and i'm just an imposter. but this quote and your words remind me that i am indeed creative. <br />i agree with what Lis says--and i am reminded to give and share and be open and authentic and vulnerable. only then can creativity truly flourish--if it's shared.amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04728586654230249359noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4360272032929008925.post-38053936398906183282010-05-30T17:26:29.681-07:002010-05-30T17:26:29.681-07:00Beautiful and wondrous homage to creative women an...Beautiful and wondrous homage to creative women and creativity....great posting beautiful and creative woman...XOXOrlyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4360272032929008925.post-30028202600540244112010-05-30T00:00:05.800-07:002010-05-30T00:00:05.800-07:00The one thing I'm sure of is blogging feeds my...The one thing I'm sure of is blogging feeds my creativity on a daily basis.Reading posts like this early in the morning fires up my enthusiasm for the rest of the day as I envision women all over the world creating something .... getting lost in the process ......unwinding from whatever stresses they have ... expressing their artistic selves in the best way they can in any particular moment.

Regardi...Thanks for your sweet comment at my blog!<br /><br />Regarding Photoshop, I started out with PhotoShop 3 and found it incredibly easy to use & did all the basic editing I needed. Then I upgraded to photoshop 6 and didn't like it very much: too complicated. My hubby got me Photoshop CS not long ago & its way out of my league. I bouight a book and hope to dig into it sometime when Nora starts taking more consistent naps. I find myself returning to PhotoShop 3 all the time for editing because its so easy for me to use.<br /><br />I've considered buying Camerabag for my PC. It's the application I use most often on my iphone for photo editing & its available pretty cheap for PCs. I've also heard alot of people rave about a website called Picnik that lets you edit your photos online. I've been meaning to check it out. I know where you can get some good free tutorials for photoshop too. Let me know if you want the info.Meeganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07960898402016075921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4360272032929008925.post-22025175207571646702010-05-27T09:02:36.700-07:002010-05-27T09:02:36.700-07:00I tried to leave a long comment yesterday but for ...I tried to leave a long comment yesterday but for some reason I can't get the open id log in to work when I comment from my iphone. <br /><br />Thanks so much for including me with these other wonderful artists. Now I have to check out their blogs! This is a wonderful post. I completely agree that creativity is the lifeforce of the world.<br /><br />Creativity can take so many forms <br />not just traditional art and we should celebrate it wherever it appears.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4360272032929008925.post-59243385660622559132010-05-27T04:29:45.145-07:002010-05-27T04:29:45.145-07:00I am still in the process of defining creativity. ...I am still in the process of defining creativity.

He asked her to show him and she said "oh, i don't know, you can move like this ... or like this ..." Days later, she came up Shiva standing before a group of men shouting "now, place your leg HERE, move your arm THIS WAY."<br /><br />I agree with you that the internet and blogging has allowed more voices to be heard, support to be given ... creativity thrives not by containing or control it, but by sharing, giving freely. I think the fear is that we are finite, small and what we give away will leave us empty and depleted. But when we can remember ourselves whole, connected, part of the source, then what we give freely opens up space for more to flow back in. At least, this is what i believe; this is what i have experienced. The more i give, the more i have. <br /><br />i feel so blessed to be in your company and the company of such amazingly creative women. Creativity, she is feeding us all!Lishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01584878249959334936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4360272032929008925.post-84846021206306307962010-05-26T06:06:18.987-07:002010-05-26T06:06:18.987-07:00creating art with a little "a" or a capi...creating art with a little "a" or a capital "A"--- it's ALL creating something from nothing.<br /><br />nice post! :)Kerrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12758783620564553796noreply@blogger.com
