the power to create

As an Interior Designer & Artist I am becoming increasing aware of the need to support one another as Designers & Artists. It seems the process of inspired creation has become diluted by many different factors. Our highly competitive money driven world has become a world of copycats, who seem to only rely on the direct interpretation of the talents & ideas of others to create…now while I believe that the work of others & they themselves are constantly inspiring, I do not believe it is fully inspired creation, to mimic another designers works. While we understand & accept that much of what we showcase or publish as designers & artists is vulnerable to the imitation of others…maybe we even feel at times it flattering that they do so…I want to personally highlight what I find inspiring in my own creations & my process of taking from inspiration & creating something new from it. Perhaps this will help others to break down the limits they put on themselves when it comes to the flow of creation.
