My Creative Journey

Image
Everyone has a different creative process. That's because we are all unique individuals. Everyone ended up with a different final product for their projects because we all had different interpretations during our nature walk and other pieces along the way. I got the most information for my project on the nature walk and from the artist I chose to compare my ideas with. The funny thing is the actual idea to make a cowboy hat didn't occur to me until I was talking to a friend of mine about country music and how you can't be considered a country artist unless you have some sort of cowboy hat. I swear an actual light bulb probably went off above my head and I was super excited to start working on my project. I did get a bit frustrated working on my project, though.
