From My Creative Journal.
This is my quiet space to share the projects and thoughts from my creative journal pages.
“In solitude, we give passionate attention to our lives, to our memories, to the details around us.”
— Virginia Woolf
Solitary
A walk along the coast path is one of my favourite activities to de-stress. I like to settle myself onto a weather-beaten wooden bench and gaze out to sea. This is often my time to contemplate. Lately I've been thinking of those creative souls who dig deep and create from a place of distress.
A walk along the coast path is one of my favourite activities to de-stress. I like to settle myself onto a weather-beaten wooden bench and gaze out to sea. This is often my time to contemplate. Lately I've been thinking of those creative souls who dig deep and create from a place of distress. Often when I'm feeling under stress or off-colour I withdraw into myself and my creativity suffers. I'm gradually learning to create more from the heart in good times and bad. I'm a firm believer that photography can be very therapeutic.
This work is based on a photo taken by the beach at Formby Point. The trees cling to the top of the sand dunes. Can you spot the bench with a view to the sea?
