Challenging myself to be creative

Well now I have done it. I signed up for the Art Show at Farpoint.
I have had some puppets and dolls running around in my head that will now have to be produced for the show.
I needed something to kick myself back into a creative mood. Peter came up with a demented idea for one piece that I think I can do in the time I have left.. I do also have some "stock" that I can show, but I always try to have a few new pieces. Why does it seem that I can only produce creatively under some sort of pressure?

Oh well. That's life I guess.
