But since becoming a watercolorist and artist, I don\u2019t read actual, paper books like I used to. There is a voice in my head that tells me I could <em>always<\/em> be painting. The rest of life pulls me away from my painting time enough, so sitting to read a book hardly happens &#8211; except right before bed, when I get two pages in before falling asleep. It takes me <em>months<\/em> to finish a book these days. But &#8211; there are so many books that I want to read! Since I have the capacity to listen while I paint, I\u2019ve become an audio-book-listener. When I look at certain paintings, I can recall the books I\u2019ve listened to while I painted parts of them:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\u201cLate Summer Zin\u201d was <a href=\"http:\/\/www.penguin.com\/static\/packages\/us\/thehelp\/index.php\" target=\"_blank\">\u201cThe Help\u201d<\/a><\/li>\n<li>\u201cDazzling\u201d was <a href=\"http:\/\/paulamclain.com\/books\/the-paris-wife\/\" target=\"_blank\">\u201cThe Paris Wife\u201d<\/a><\/li>\n<li>\u201cLustina\u201d was <a href=\"http:\/\/suemonkkidd.com\/books\/the-invention-of-wings\/overview\/\" target=\"_blank\">\u201cThe Invention of Wings\u201d<\/a><\/li>\n<li>\u201cJubilee\u201d was <a href=\"http:\/\/www.richardcmorais.com\/the-100-foot-journey\/\" target=\"_blank\">\u201cThe Hundred Foot Journey\u201d<\/a><\/li>\n<li>\u201cEternal\u201d was <a href=\"http:\/\/www.robinoliveira.com\/i-always-loved-you\/the-book.php\" target=\"_blank\">\u201cI Always Loved You\u201d<\/a> (about Mary Cassatt and Edgar Degas \u2013 a wonderful book)<\/li>\n<li>\u201cBlush\u201d was the first three seasons of \u201cDownton Abbey\u201d &#8211; I was just about the last person to fall in love with the series. One evening in December 2013 I binged listened (mostly) while I painted on the glass vase. I had my iPad propped up on the painting and I glanced over now and then to see what was happening. You\u2019d never know by looking at that part of the painting!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Right now I\u2019m still working on the red-pink-orange roses, and last night, started listening to Elizabeth Gilbert read to me her new book called, \u201cBig Magic.\u201d I\u2019m completely hooked. She is, like I am, a student and curious observer of the creative process, and I\u2019m having a twinge of book envy. I am in no way the writer she is (nor should I be &#8211; I have been writing just a few years as compared to her <em>whole life<\/em>). My appreciation is way bigger than my envy though &#8211; I\u2019m completely emboldened by her words &#8211; and somehow even more so listening to her, as opposed to reading. I love having her tell me all about how she sees creativity, and how she holds the art-making process. My philosophy is exactly hers, which is incredibly affirming. I know she\u2019d applaud what I find myself saying to those of you, who paint with me in our time together.<\/p>\n<p>I read her blockbuster book \u201cEat, Pray, Love\u201d in 2006 while we were living at my parents, while our house was being remodeled. It, along with Sue Monk Kidd\u2019s \u201cThe Dance of the Dissident Daughter,\u201d got me through that stressful time. Not only were we remodeling, but I was Worship Committee Chair, while the pastor of my church at the time was on sabbatical \u2013 there were 20 Sundays that year we had to plan for without her, I was writing the church newsletter, I was in a demanding 10-month-long leadership program and I was a relatively new real estate agent, with anxious clients whose house wasn\u2019t selling, as the market had just peaked. After dinner, while the TV was on in another part of the house, I cuddled up in bed and fell into Italy, then India, then Indonesia and her funny-wise writing.<\/p>\n<p>Neither of the books she\u2019s written since have called to me to read, but reading the first part of \u201cBig Magic\u201d got me. The way she talks about creativity, is incredibly energizing to me. And &#8211; freeing. Here\u2019s how she is preaching to the choir:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>There aren\u2019t creative people and non-creative people. By virtue of the fact that we exist, we are creative. We are wired to <em>make things<\/em>.<\/li>\n<li>We <em>are<\/em> not geniuses so much as <em>have<\/em> them. Ancient Romans thought that geniuses were separate entities outside of us that visit upon us \u2013 taking all the credit as well as pressure away from us. Yay! Freedom to just make stuff \u2013 \u201cgood\u201d or\u2026 not so \u201cgood.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>She quotes the poet David Whyte with the phrase \u201cthe arrogance of belonging\u201d and gives us permission, if we feel we lack it, in doing so gives a whole new spin on \u201centitlement.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>There\u2019s no requirement for us to save or even change the world with our work, it\u2019s enough to simply enjoy it. Phew, I can just paint pretty pictures \u2013 I don\u2019t have to make any \u201cstatement\u201d or push any boundaries with what I paint.<\/li>\n<li>Ideas are living things separate from us that want to become manifest in the physical world. If we are faithful to our process of creating, they will see that we are serious enough about what we are doing for them to come through us.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>And I\u2019m not quite half way through the book.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m not sure that this book will revolutionize how I live my creative life \u2013 so much of it (so far) is right where I live. But already, I\u2019m emboldened to get on with the idea that came to me last week &#8211; to find friendly places for me to leave stacks of calendars with envelopes, for people to mail me a check \u2013 on the honor system. I was all excited about the idea, and then hit a snag and doubt has crept in. But, I\u2019m <em>going<\/em> to take action on this idea today. (There are SO many calendars still for me to find homes for!). If I look at my art as the work of my (external) inspiration, it\u2019s my job to make it <em>and<\/em> see it into the world, if that\u2019s what is in me to do with it.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.lifeinfullcolor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/rose-WIP-background.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-3659 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.lifeinfullcolor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/rose-WIP-background.jpg\" alt=\"rose WIP background\" width=\"556\" height=\"207\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lifeinfullcolor.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/rose-WIP-background.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.lifeinfullcolor.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/rose-WIP-background-300x112.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lifeinfullcolor.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/rose-WIP-background-600x223.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.lifeinfullcolor.com\/dev\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/rose-WIP-background-200x74.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 556px) 100vw, 556px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s also calming down the \u201cee-gads\u201d going on inside me, in reaction to what I\u2019m doing with this painting above. Out of a conversation with someone, who is looking for a painting for his wife for Christmas, I realized I needed to do something <em>else<\/em> with the background. The roses partly painted, I\u2019ve stepped back from them and stripped away the dark green and blue background down, to as much bare paper as I can (without destroying it!). And now I\u2019m painting in a fuzzy background. The lower part is coming out ok \u2013 though I do need to make the leaves and stems more well-defined. But I wanted to put in some sunlit leaves at the top. What I\u2019m finding, is that the paper <em>really<\/em> needs to be white, in order for the glow of yellow and yellow green to come through. The stain in the paper wasn\u2019t allowing it to. So, I\u2019m working with opaque paints and even some white gouache. It\u2019s an entirely different deal \u2013 white from paint, not paper \u2013 just like painters of all other media use. It\u2019s an experiment. I\u2019m not sure it\u2019s going to work <em>and<\/em> I\u2019m sticking with it. I\u2019m learning how to work with gouache, and I have a fresh appreciation for the way pure watercolor on white paper, portrays luminosity. There is &#8211; and will be &#8211; plenty of white-paper-luminosity in the roses and in any case, I\u2019m hearing my own words: \u201cit\u2019s just a piece of paper, not my self-worth.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019ll see what happens. Maybe by next week I\u2019ll have it done to share with you. I know I\u2019ll have listened to the rest of \u201cBig Magic.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If you are looking for encouragement or permission to give yourself over to your creative life, or to give yourself to your creative life <em>more<\/em>, get yourself <a href=\"http:\/\/www.elizabethgilbert.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">\u201cBig Magic.\u201d<\/a> And then &#8211; go make stuff!<\/p>\n<p>Love,<\/p>\n<p>Cara<\/p>\n ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Listen to this post: I love stories and I am compelled to expand my consciousness \u2013 which means I love books.
