I find as I am getting older it is harder for me to make up my mind! When I was young I just decided on things ( mostly impulsively) never thinking about the consequences. Now I seem to weigh all the things that could go wrong with each decision I make. Sometimes my art work suffers because of an impulsive decision. At one time I welcomed these impromptu decisions with my art. They usually gave me more interesting ideas for the next project. Now I worry that a new decision will ruin my initial plan and I will lose my original idea. Even when I drive somewhere now I think of many directions to go, even though it will get me to the same place! Why should I care if I get there quicker or easier? I find even my circle of art friends are having the same problem. When we plan to meet it takes us a few times to decide if one day is better than another or one time is better. We are all retired ,so what does it really matter.
Even writing this post I could not make a decision, changing my mind a million times.
And speaking of the piece for this challenge……..it took me longer to make a decision than it did to make the piece!

I guess I think too much about too many things at one time. Oh…..the mind of an artist!

Many colours and fabrics were used in this piece ( because I could not decide) . The arrows show the many directions I went through!

One thought on “Which Way Should I Go!

  1. Amazing, a great design play, Al! I love the colours, stitching and possible “way to go” connections to your directions!

Tell us what you think.
