Wishcasting Wednesday

It’s that time – Wishcasting Wednesday – by Jamie Ridler.  Today’s question is… 
What do you wish to focus on?
As always, the question is so appropriate for what is going on in my life!  I just started a self-portraiture workshop last week called Wading In by Vivienne McMaster.  In just a week’s time, I have been SO inspired by the others in the workshop!  I have began looking at how to tell a story about me & my life thru pictures from a whole new perspective.  I am thoroughly LOVING it!

A little story about serendipity…

I signed up for Jamie’s Sparkles workshop and in it you are asked to take a photograph of yourself.  Well, let’s just say it took me WAY longer than it should have to get a shot of myself that met my approval!!  I actually posted on my blog that day how I would love to find a self-portraiture workshop.  Seriously, no sooner had I put that out there did I somehow stumble upon Vivienne.  Serendipity.  I took it as a sign from above shouting yes to me!  I can not wait to see what is left to discover in this adventure!!

Here’s is one photo of mine from the workshop…

Radiance

My wish...

I wish to focus on exploring – exploring who I am, what I love…and expressing it!

Whether I express myself thru photography, drawing, painting – it doesn’t matter – as long as I am doing what I love and expanding my creativity. 

I know connecting with all of you who are reading this now and others thru workshops has been so very inspiring and encouraging.  Thank you.

What do you wish to focus on?  Wish here.

As you wish for yourself, so I wish for you!

  8. Dear Sandy,
    I love your positive attitude and your self portrait really shows that...beautiful! You are so right...no matter what you are doing, as long as you are doing what you love, you are on the right track. How many people get to do that on a daily basis? It is a gift! Keep exploring and you will be amazed at where it takes you! As you wish for yourself, I so wish for you, too!
