Toward the end of the Exploration step I am in a very deep creative place. Continuing to bring the ideas in my mind to a more formed collection. Some ideas work out but others have not and that deep creative place can turn negative very quickly. I doubt my creative abilities, second guess myself. The negative thoughts continue to compile and the downward spiral continues.

This artwork started with a photograph of my old work space at the end of a long day. The light is on but nobody is home. The image is reflected and in the large photo frame has an artwork foreshadowing one of the next steps in the creative process.
