Finding my medium...

I have always felt like an artist. I've always felt inspired to create. Despite this I have struggled to find my medium. I can look at a drawing, a painting, or a photograph and feel inspired but I have struggled to use any of these mediums to translate my own inspiration into works.
Artistic medium according to Wikipedia: "In the arts, a media or medium is a material used by an artist or designer to create a work."

I was cleaning up today and I realized that the kitchen has become my art studio. Instead of paintbrushes I have spoons and spatulas. Instead of paint I have various ingredients that I blend together to form muffins, and cakes, and breads.
When I am in the kitchen I feel inspired and I am able to translate that inspiration into works that are pleasing to others.

And with that I find peace and satisfaction.



The Artist.
