Where is my creative space?


My creative space is ...

everywhere..


In my dreams


In my home...


In my little studio...


Outside..under the moon,
stars and Sun...
in nature..............in my mind!


and always in my heart..





And as I shared last year..
the most magical space is in your HEART..
where all Creativity is ignited!



Wherever you create...it is special.
So whether you have  a big or small space or no space at all....
a tiny room..a table..or all in your heart and mind..............Creativity has no boundaries!


And our Creative Spaces are like magical portals
that house all the ingredients!




Party On..............I will enjoy seeing everyones spaces.



One last thing to share...

THe most special thing in my studio..
is this old Vintage Organ
It belonged my Beautiful Nana!

She used it play it all the time..and now that she is gone..
it touches my heart to see it here everyday..
and to know her gentle hands used to touch those very keys and bring music and joy to all..

Is there anything special to you that you keep in your space?

This Painting is also a Tribute
to My Nana, my mother and I!
The Dance of life..three generations..
Hope you enjoyed my little tour...

Thankyou for flying with me in the Portal...

what a fun whimsical journey this was, thank you for sharing! You don't just create your paintings, you create your space which I think is a much harder task! And such a beautiful space at that!! Hugs! Hope you are well!

Kiki, I don't know what I like more, your art, your photography or your lovely words about creativity. This is a beautiful post!

Loree said...

Your space is very beautiful Kiki. You are surrounded by so many pretty and wonderful things and your paintings are lovely. Wishing you a wonrderful weekend.

Kim said...

I just love seeing little glimpses of your enchanted space and...all your stuff too! :)

Your keyboard sounds so very special, especially knowing that your Nana probably found such joy in playing it.

The special thing that I keep in my space is a little letter from my mom (who is gone), telling me that she loves me. I keep that on my altar.

I hope you enjoy your time away! Come visit when you return...

Hugs xxxxx

Hi Kiki,

I think there's been a blue moon since I last visited. Blogger messed up my blog for weeks. It was frustrating. I've created a new blog that you will land on that is concentrating on my crochet and sewing. I'd love for to come over and hit the follow button. :0) Queen of Dreamsz is still active. I'm going to make it a place to post all of my vintage sewing patterns and other images I have.

Your post is divine. I love looking at your paintings. I remember last year trying to buy one of them. I can totally understand why you would keep them.

Have a magical day,
Stephanie Suzanne ♥
