Digression - Having Fun.

 
 You know those moments when you just want to do something for the sheer fun of it? Well I had one of those recently and had a ball so excuse me for digressing from the SL story for now while I take you to my crazy creations. And some are, well... crazy.

Occasionally I stare at my computer without an idea to bless myself with, that's when I play. Out comes the wacom and a blank canvas and on goes some paint any-old-how. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, but that's what creating is all about. Sometimes it's something I can't use but starts an idea that moves me along.

The QTest Kritter (customise)[TBA] by MisTikkal
This strange Kritter began as a bit of scribble and took on a life of its own. It was one of those days when I was playing with pen and ink and going nowhere fast. I took a partial drawing, placed it on a blank canvas and out came QTest Kritter. Staggers me that this little thing ended up with a TBA (Today's Best Award). That did teach me a lesson however. Go with the Muse when the Muse says "I'm having a day (week, month) off unless you 'play'." So the next time that happened I twiddled my thumbs for a while before confronting the blank square of white but about the same time Zazzle introduced some new products and suddenly I was wired to go. That was when "Rok Chik Stars" was born and I went a little crazy - magnets, keyrings, tshirts, tiles, keepsake boxes and notebooks/pad. I had a ball.

And that's just the beginning. But joy oh bliss, Zazzle introduced PUZZLES! Interlocking jigsaw puzzles. I've loved jigsaws since I was a wee thing. By the time I was 8 I was onto the puzzles as big as space would allow. So when Zazzle brough puzzles in I jumped at the chance to design them. No I haven't forgotten "Eutopia". I'm on the way to designing puzzles with some of those SL pics - sketching, painting, and coming up with some lovely designs for gifts or for those who just can't pass a puzzle by. I've only started so there's lots more to come.
