“Change the way you look at things and the things you look at will change.”
Wayne Dyre.
Watching someone get caught up in a creative moment when they are not expecting to is a bit like watching them dance to music that that was too infectious not to move to. It’s inspiring.
A cardboard coffee tray seemed to be the conduit for this resourceful character. Believe it or not, I had never seen these simple pieces put together to make a caricature. Now I’ll see trays and hangers a different way , as potential bodily components beyond their lines and shapes.
In this process I was given a different view and now I see different possibilities.
Now isn’t that what art is about?

This weeks wow is a family affair. Mama Sharon and two of her brood, came in for a CReATE date! Lennox had something special in mind, a chair for her Barbie. After family consults the chair idea was expanded to include a dining table which looked best with place settings for six.
The whole family worked on this lovely process to make a meal fit for a queen. They added the tiniest of details like straws (made of toothpicks) in glasses of milk (made of cut straws filled with glue)and shell plates with salad (beads). Every detail was thought of, even the napkins were pressed.
I hope I get invited to dinner.

This week CReATE’s featured posts seemed to have a common thread between them. They each stemmed from a thoughtful place. The awesome Fenway Park was made by two boys who wanted to make a gift for a friend. A birthday tiara and pendant was made for a special cousin’s birthday. A mailbox sticker spouts a positive perspective for all and furry pet adornments and toys will do good for those in need.
Sharing kindness is what makes the world go round.
Check out the good @createstudio

What started as a stuffed sock evolved with bold fabric scraps and trims to make up this whimsically tribal looking doll.
Macy mixed and matched all the pieces she was drawn to and with her moms help put them together in a most intriguing way.
No tribal great one could be complete without a head dress and satchel filled with special potions, foods and tools- she thought of all the details to make this doll complete. No doubt he will stay in the family for many years to come.

These plastic Chargers have so much to say…
When they grow up, they want to be warrior shields and flying saucers, the foundation for a silly face or a tray to store cool stuff. There are lots of cool possibilities.
What fun they will be this week!

Another great week was had at CReATE!
We were inspired in and out of the studio by crafty teens, cool parking meters, a batch of block heads and CD’s that rock a garden. Take a look @createstudio
