When I go to Pinterest I see colors, techniques, ideas, patterns,- it's incredibly hard to process it all. Then there's the awful sneaking sensation that "I'm not good enough! Look at that! amazing! I would NEVER think of that!". That is a mojo KILLER.<br /> I find that the more info I access, the less actual work I make.<br />I agree on the whole "copyright" thing as well. I don't have a copy right sign on my blog because I am sharing for a reason. I actually don't even expect acknowledgement- although I must admit it makes me jump for joy when I get it every once in a while. :)<br />I'm not sure how this magnanimous POV will change as I develop as an artist but I guess I would flip out if I developed a great idea or style and someone else took it and had financial success with it. <br />I would FIGHT this though because that would be coming from a place of insecurity and scarcity. A great creative mind has more than 1 good idea. Perhaps there may only be 1 great idea per lifetime but I'm not a pessimist. I'm not a half glass full kinda person. I'm a the glass is ALWAYS full person- air is an element too and just as vital for life as water.Michelle Hernandezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03679879157645074185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4153893828417499546.post-23704415601214903032012-02-07T22:25:02.782+01:002012-02-07T22:25:02.782+01:00Love this - so vibrantLove this - so vibrantPosies Mahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17999559138522592622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4153893828417499546.post-33838567555961201872012-02-07T06:38:07.659+01:002012-02-07T06:38:07.659+01:00Cheryl I love the randomness, the kaleidoscope of ...Cheryl I love the randomness, the kaleidoscope of color and the inspiration!

This is a very interesting post, I've always bounced between searching for inspiration and letting it find me or "stumbling" upon it. The internet is good for so many things and the other side of that coin is being so "overwhelmed" by inspiration that you get nothing created. lolMaggihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14418996821092160355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4153893828417499546.post-35359433101265036932012-02-05T20:31:40.819+01:002012-02-05T20:31:40.819+01:00Very interesting thoughts on a very hot topic righ...Very interesting thoughts on a very hot topic right now.

I create in order to share and inspire others, not to get recognition or reimbursement. At the same time, I am always concious of giving those that inspire me their dues. Everyone loves a good pat on the back for everything they put into their creations.AllisonChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13167526238904388349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4153893828417499546.post-69651301843503397622012-02-04T13:45:09.307+01:002012-02-04T13:45:09.307+01:00cool work Cheryl!!!cool work Cheryl!!!Jolandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17513415007151492404noreply@blogger.com
