I’m both troubled and inspired by this quote from the book Scandinavian Stitches. I think mostly I’m inspired. It makes me take some pressure off myself. Also, I’m a mom artist now, which is quite a different beast than a non-parent artist. I wasn’t expecting that to happen, but now that I’m on the other side, I see very clearly that my world is incredibly different from when before Juniper was born, and forever will be. So that means finding new ways to create.
“If it weren’t for my children, I would probably still be looking for my deep artistic expression. Having children helped me realize that sometimes scratching the surface is enough to find your creative flow.”
