Who's Deb?

I admit it - I am a "creative junkie." I crave opportunities to create just about anything. I get irritable and twitchy if I go too long without using my hands to re-imagine some art supplies and interesting found objects into a new form.

Whether it is jewelry or altered books or journal making or playing with fabric and design, I NEED to create. I have come to realize that this need to create is a way for me to express my experiences of the Sacred in my life. Sometimes these expressions are serious and sometimes they are playful.....but they are the 'whispers of my soul' and I enjoy sharing them.

Each piece I create is unique. Some contain objects I find when I'm out wandering. Bits of interesting metal or wire or stone find themselves transformed into a pendant or incorporated into the cover of a book. Pieces may be inspired by a word I hear or a conversation I share or an idea in a book I am reading. Anything and everything becomes a potential "art part." It makes me pay attention to my life more intentionally - after all, I don't want to miss out on any creative possibilities!
