Shrooms Don't Make You Creative

I enjoyed an evening spent at the Bellingham Flea Market displaying my art a while back.

In the single-room building, there were a variety of odd things to enjoy:

• belly-dancers balancing swords on their heads
• customized painted scraps of broken tile
• stylish clothing made out of recycled sweaters
• bluegrass musicians wearing fake mustaches
• free wine and cookies . . .

. . . and that's only the beginning.

I got plenty of feedback on my art, met some great people, and even got a visit from some awesome friends.

Among the complements on my work was this one:

"Your art is great. It reminds me of being on shrooms."

It wasn't that creative; he was looking at this art piece.
