These are lovely pages and it is interesting how we struggle to develop our own style when some people seem to just find it - but perhaps that only comes from so much practice and experimentation. It certainly sounds like Amanda Hislop puts lots of energy and time into her sketch books and final work. <br />I think it is good to be inspired by other peoples work and to be pushed outside our comfort zone, or try something we wouldn't otherwise do. For me, my 'creativity' comes from feeling constrained and working inside my head (using other peoples ideas, following plans) but then switching into free style and just playing. I can feel the change. I've not yet found my own style either and think it is partly because I am so diverse and interested in so many things. If I could just focus on one area I might have more time and opportunity to develop my style, but like you I will carry on playing and learning from others because this feeds my soul and I love meeting other creatives.Sandiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12558786621283350776noreply@blogger.com
