My special thanks goes to the wonderful Anne for her nomination of the Blog Tour Award. I am very happy to accept the nomination with great honor because she decided to choose me and my Blog between millions of great other ones. Please visit her blog she is a fabulous writer of beautiful stories and novels, sure you will have a good reading time with her.
The rules:
- Pass the tour on up to four other bloggers.
- Give your nominees the rules and a specific Monday to post.
- Answer four questions about your creative process which lets other bloggers and visitors know what inspires you to do what you do.
- How does my work differ from others in my genre?
- How does my writing/creative process work?
- Why do I write or create what I do?
- What I’m working on at the moment?
- Compose a one-time post on a specific Monday (date given from your nominator).
1. How does my work differ from others in my genre?
I am an Artist designer and my Art extends in many different ways. I like to have my designs and creations recognizable. I am hoping that when people see them they know it is mine without seeing my signature. I like to stand out from the mass-produced in anything I create. In my jewelry collection I like to work on One-of-a-Kind and Limited Edition pieces only. I like “uniqueness” because each jewel will be a little different from one another. In my artistic vision I believe that each person is different and deserves uniqueness. My jewelry is uniquely made especially for you.
2. How does my writing/creative process work?
My creative process start from my inspirations. I get inspired from almost anything, it can be all of a sudden something pops in my mind, or just looking outside the window…anything can be the start of a great creation for a painting a sketch or jewelry. Often, while making my jewelry, I get inspired by selecting the beautiful natural gemstones, their colors, their meanings and their powers. My creativity leads my hands to forge and hammer the metal around it creating a shape that will complete the natural stone bringing to life a wonderful creation. I like to write a little story for each jewelry piece and give to each one a meaningful and powerful title. I always create a custom packaging including my Certificate of Authenticity.
3. Why do I write or create what I do?
I have been an artist since I was a little girl. My great inspiration started at home. Growing up I have been surrounded by my father beautiful oil paintings and more of his art. I always had the love for drawing, create and handcrafts. I have been following my heart and path, believing that anything is possible if you truly believe in it and in yourself. Be creative is in my genes it is what I am. Each item I design it is special, unique and has a piece of my own story and background, there is my soul and heart in every creation I made.
I always loved to design what I was feeling…make my own path and right now my dream is to share it with the world and with you. I would like for you to express yourself and be able to create your own mutable story-style day by day, feeling special, beautiful and unique wearing my creations. I am happy when I can make someone happy!
4. What I’m working on at the moment?
At this moment my primary focus it is creating new designs for my “Among Nature” Jewelry Collection 2015″ jewelry inspired by nature. I will keep shooting and staging all my jewelry photos. Working on this website blog which make me happy. I came across to wonderful inspiring people. I love to create all the graphics that you see here. And… there are many other things that I would be doing artistically… 🙂

Joanne, start with writing your thoughts and feelings down first. You can either keep a journal of these writings or in my case, I store them in my file documents on pc. Maybe a good idea to keep a copy in a USB Drive too just in case your computer crashes. Once you acquire a collection, that is when I sit down and start to write. If writing fictional stories, the feelings I transpose to my characters and such. You get the idea anyway. Write from your soul and heart. These are just suggestions but how I started writing two years ago. I hope they help if only in a small way. Anne 🙂

It’s interesting to me that most artists have similar motivation and wishes. To have recognition without having to look at the signature is magical. For me, it’s like hearing the first few chords of a song and knowing who the performer is. That is an excellent measure of success. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the creative process!

You are very perceptive! I tried to get the drums to sound as much like Nick Mason as possible, and the bass was double tracked to get a very dark sound. If I ever put out a CD, you will certain receive a copy!
