I am stalled.
Is it creative block?
I have spent time sitting with The Rainbow Connection and The Inner Child,
both series of dolls made quickly and intuitively,
hoping for inspiration.
Nothing gels.
Is it stress?
I am not a 'product' or 'outcome' oriented person.
Perhaps I am feeling a pressure to have 'something to show'.
Perhaps I feel I have to 'be creating' - a kind of mini-production line.
All this is anathema to me.
The expectation of product extinguishes the desire to create.
Am I simply in a liminal space -
crossing the threshold between the known and the unknown?
