IndiePENdesign: What's so good about Fridays?

Welcome!

This independence is my license to do what I love to live for: to write and create uncompromisingly. It's a free rocking world after all and there's so much to discover and unravel in the independent scene where I struggle to live, thrive and survive each day. It's the very essence of living la vida boho-- embracing and celebrating freedom with nothing but this drive and creativity to make things happen. And from my undying romance with the written word to this growing affair with my beadworks, I'm falling hard again as an indiependesigner (I don't know if the term makes sense to anyone but it's just me and this awakened interest to pen down every moment of designing my so-called indie-boho explorations). In short, let me craft a story for you-- could be my own or my valuable indie finds deserving of the world's attention. Enjoy trotting the independent road! And for the record, all expressed here are in my own words-- my thoughts, my views, my say on what I think matters.

What's so good about Fridays?

IT was a good Friday for me not only because it was Good Friday; I had a beautiful and quiet one. And I'd say I could walk forever...

I'm walking, walking on the moon...

Busy streets no more...

....but churches were.

Things I bought along the streets...

They asked for money, I gave them the biggest ripe mango I got. They smiled for me in return...

I love the sight of logs but I wondered how many trees they have to cut down to religiously satisfy our Pugon-demanding taste buds...

Finally my "found object..." The first time I heard the term from an artist, I instantly loved the feeling it inspires even if I honestly didn't know what it truly means to a visual artist that I am not. And I just Googled it now and Wiki says... A found object, in an artistic sense, indicates the use of an object which has not been designed for an artistic purpose, but which exists for another purpose already. Found objects may exist either as utilitarian, manufactured items, or things which occur in nature. In both cases the objects are discovered by the artist or musician to be capable of being employed in an artistic way, and are designated as 'found' to distinguished them from purposely created items used in the art forms." ...A bit of a trivia for me and for a moment I thought of bringing home this lovely wooden chair for another artistic purpose, maybe to make beadwords accessories out of it...

I just love taking snapshots as I love writing captions. I think my next goal could be grabbing a nice cam for myself to pursue another passion.
