The day
of the questioning.
Felieke is the king,
the queen and the cake with the cherry on the top!
I’m not entirely
sure how I can explain what I felt when I looked at her work. Firstly, the
colours dazzled me and then I was drawn in to the detail of her beading,
crochet work and small details that made these animal sculptures so intriguing.
The toy animals had me feeling like I was in some quirky circus. The work made
me smile. In some pieces I was aware of some deeper meaning. So the work also
made me think beyond the cuteness and the sparkle.
Her work had me near
to speechlessness but it also surfaced my endless doubt in my abilities.
When I see work
like this a voice in my head says:
‘I wish I had
thought of this’
That’s when the
self-doubt voice chimes in… Why should I continue when this wonderful work
exists? Will I ever be able to find my way on this creative adventure that I
have signed up for? Do I have what it takes to reach this point?
Thanks Karin for
the pep talk. I’m glad I came up to you when I did otherwise I probably would not
have had that very important conversation with you.

The following picture is from just near the station at Apeldoorn. It towers above the park and looks like a random metal thing... until you view it from the correct angle.
