No matter how many days off from work you have this July 4th holiday, if you are so inclined, you can find a few moments to make some art. Holiday weekends are a great time to see new and different things than you might in your week-a-day life and the new observations can be inspiration for creativity. People are dressed up, carnivals and parades spring to life, you might travel, you might take a walk. These are all great excuses to sketch, photograph, and get crafty.
Photographer Kerry Hawkins never misses a beat when it comes to capturing the world around her. She records her daily photographic observations on her blog and sells prints of her work through her Etsy shop. Noticing the interesting in the everyday is what makes Hawkins' work delightful and always unexpected.
Craft artist Crystal Hanehan creates spun cotton figurines and needle felted creations that celebrate holidays, friendship, and every day miricles. Hanehan has shared a 'how to' article on creating a July 4th banner for decorating the home. Adding some flair to a room can really make a whole house brighten, and Hanehan exemplifies this practice. Her business name is Vintage by Crystal and her work can be seen through her web site and purchased on line.
Try something new, and let the holiday being out your creative side!
