Outgrow Your Shoes - Digital Collage |
If you allowed yourself...just
once...to dream with wild abandon...where would your dreams take you?
Would you be on a wistful journey, meandering through experiences at
your own cadence? Or would you rather give up all control and fly
unrestrained towards a destination that only Fate can dictate?
The focus of the latest Lunagirl Moonbeam Design Team Challenge is "Shoes". This challenge is shared with Vicki Romaine's Blog, The Cheerful Stamp Pad.
Thinking about shoes brought me to one of my favourite sayings by Japanese writer and poet, Ryunosuke Satoro: "Let
Your Dreams Outgrow the Shoes of Your Expectations". Lunagirl's images
are inspiring as always. I chose a shoe and eagerly began my work.
Travel
is my sanctuary and the act of my putting on my shoes was always the
prelude to a great adventure. I never knew what to expect, but I
wandered, ever hopeful that I would experience something different and
wonderful.
By
allowing my dreams to outgrow my shoes my life, and art, grew in
directions I never thought possible. I wouldn't trade those experiences,
the great and the not so wonderful, for anything!
So, fellow Artists and Dreamers...the call to outgrow your shoes is beckoning you. Will you take the dare?
