These past few days I've spent creating and crafting. It's been miraculous. I've been experiencing a plethora of inspiring events nonstop for a few days. So I apologize for the delay in posting. Time to catch up.
So, firstly, this was advice from a dear friend about my dancing. It applies to basically everything though. Also, it has been noted by numerous sources I'm happier when I do things I love. I'm also happier when I create something or anything. This brings me to the second.
I've created 10-15 pieces of art since Thursday. Some are crap, some are okay. I don't care. It felt remarkable to create something. Between the 700+ photos I took this week, 4 hours of video to edit, a project mostly finished, a new portfolio and all the art, I feel practically tingly with inspiration. It's bad for my bank account in terms of paper and canvases and my vanishing amount of wall space. However, once again I don't care.
Lastly, a design thought. I think the one size fits all mindset is excessively dated. I got this idea from reading about education reform. I've heard related concepts about place based solutions. Very few if any solutions are universal. So stop it. Besides, one size fits all didn't even work in clothing,why would it work elsewhere?
Post Script: It's good I didn't delay any longer otherwise I would have run out or arm room.
My boyfriend pointed out I didn't explain this too well. He said it should be "one size fits all doesn't work almost everywhere." Perhaps there is a case where it works, but I don't want to approach a problem assuming I already have a solution I can make fit. I want my solutions to develop new for each project.
