Let's Communicate...Favorite Things Week 2

I think that there are many different ways to communicate, beyond the verbal. Here are some of the ways that I communicate, some of the many different forms of communication available to us, as human beings:



Original drawing for an embroidery piece, "Medusa Girl Chases the Aliens Through a Field of Flowers"



"Time" an original photo compilation, Olympus OM1, TriX film



Original Photo Chemical Painting



Handwritten journal entry scan



Embroidered garden gloves, "Love & Hate," a Blues Brothers tribute



Milagro Necklace, an original jewelry piece

Each has its own story to tell & is a different form of communication. I once had a friend who asked, when looking at a piece of art "But what does it do?"  The real answer to that question is that it communicates...

We all communicate  in some way, unless we're hermits or asleep. Whether our communication is vocal or we use some other means of communication, we are always communicating  & hopefully listening to each other, to me this is the most important part of communication. Without listening, there is no communication . Without hearing & reflection, we can not truly understand.
What about you? What do you think? In what ways do you choose to communicate? SAM

My Work Space

So today, for show us your business Wednesday, we're supposed to show you our work space. For me, this is pretty simple: a computer (not this exact model, but same brand & size. I like it. The only thing that I prefer a larger screen for is photo editing, one of my favorite pastimes) & anywhere I can sit to use it. As far as where I make things, you don't want to see that ;) No really, you don't...but it basically involves the same, anywhere I can sit to make things theory. I also like to have something else going, like the TV or music. It help me concentrate. I know, that sounds weird, but it's true! When I was in school, I did my homework the same way. No, I didn't fail every class, I actually received good grades. I know, shocking, isn't it? I hope you enjoyed this short tour of my workspace :) SAM
