something a friend told me once


I know it really doesn't make sense but then at the time it really made sense.
Too tired to elaborate but lets just say it's the heart bursting out like rays in every way possible.
All ways some how become one.



Lilla Rogers Bootcamp June

This month the assignment was to create some wall art with a loose ship in bottle/ nautical theme.
Being a Pisces, I love the water and anything that flows. So I played with some of my favorite colors, blues, almost sea green and my favorite medium, collage. Here are some images from this play creating time.

2. Documentary Tim's Vermeer, love this five year obsession. http://boingboing.net/2014/06/10/vermeers-paintings-might-be.html

3. Quotes on my son's school wall inspired by the book Wonder by RJ Palacio. Wish I hadn't ignored the temptation to take a pic of one of them; even just the quote so I could remember on a dreary heart heavy day, the power in words pieced together and written on a poster board.
