Five Things Friday -- Creativity and Visual Inspiration

I'm on school drop-off duty this morning (honestly, it's a pleasure rather than a duty, and I volunteered), and then a doctor's appointment directly after, so this will be quick.  Just thought I'd share Five places I've found creative visual inspiration lately.

1. Above, the Nine and I made an after-school outing to the same Takashi Murakami exhibition that I'd visited recently with the Five. Such fun, and so fine to see how much patience and critical discernment the Nine has developed since I began visiting the gallery with her when she was about five. That discernment was quirkily, if not comprehensively, represented by her wry comment, "What's with all the barfing?" Overall, she loved the detail, the narrative possibilities in each stunningly intricate panel, the colour -- oh my, the colour! Show ends this week at the Vancouver Art Gallery, but if you ever have a chance to see Murakami's work -- run!

2.  I always find so much creative energy in the garden -- and the tranquility needed to recharge as well.

3. Walking in my urban neighbourhood and the surrounding areas. I found this marvellous red-painted brick wall in a nearby industrial area -- and, of course, it made me think of that yellow wall I loved in Portland. It would be fun to "collect" primary-colour painted brick walls in photographs, wouldn't it?!

 I'd love to know who chose the paint colour -- how considered was the choice? Was their thought given to congruity with that lettering on the "John and Murrary Motors" building to the left? (And how about the serendipity of that red vehicle parked to the right, partway down the block?)

4.  At home, we recently hung these three delightful bird portraits, each of a bird that has visited our urban-condo bird feeder.

 These are splendidly detailed, hand-embroidered on a felted surface by the textile-artist daughter of my very good friend -- I've known the artist since she was born, but it's not simply that bias that has me raving about her work.  Browse her Instagram feed to see more examples -- gorgeous stuff!

5. And then an example of my own modest attempt to develop skills that will let me express my own responses to all the visual stimulation I find out in this beautiful world, troubled though we may often find it. . . This is a work-in-progress, begun in watercolour class yesterday morning and currently sitting on my dining table, waiting for the next layer. . .

Once again, I have to leave running. . . hope you enjoyed this little survey of the way Art finds its way to me. Perhaps you might tell me where your eyes have enjoyed either resting or being woken up lately. How have you fed that creative urge? Even if you never put pencil to paper in response, I believe there's art in the observation, in the appreciation, don't you?
