Beautiful sewing creators

Here is the short film that I promised, around the healing doll #wip #workinprogress for the Needleworkmonday community.

I wanted to share it in 3D a little, and am talking about the process of intuitive creation - rather than planning and doing in steps. I love how a character and even the life-full-ness of a figure like this can come to the surface, through working without pre-conception, as it were.

It's a powerful inner journey too, using the figure as metaphor for Self, for human body, for 'personality' or archetype: she also has this feeling of being a unique, indipendent character, who wants to tell a story if I allow her to come to life.

A good friend sent me a snapshot of his partner's painted animations - 2D figures, painted and animated for children. I loved this, and it affirmed that I have been feeling this sense of expansion - of my 2D figurative paintings wanting to come to life, of my written and spoken word wanting to come into singing and songs - of everything becoming more multidimensional and living, rather than abstract and dead....

This is a potent process, as many of us are delving into, all around the world, as we recognise how the nature of reality has been manipulated to keep us in stagnant submission: the waking process is flowing through every are of life just now!

Many blessings on your work, health and life, friends,
