I was about to chuck this book in the trash. Every time I made a journal page in this book, it was simply awful. It seemed as if the book was stealing my mojo.
This was a last ditch effort for the book. If I wasn’t happy today…it was going away in a really permanent fashion.
I think I’ll keep it around, at least for the time being.
I don’t know if I’m at liberty to show the poem on the canvas yet….hence the partial photo with words blurred.
My friend Sandy entered a poetry contest and won! Her poem is going to be published. She asked me if I’d do an art piece with her words.
The funny thing is that I had started this canvas became “stuck” at a certain point. I felt that it needed words.
Low and behold…the words fell into my lap. After the words, I added a couple of collage pieces from an old children’s book I saved from the trash heap.
I hope she loves it as much as I do…
UPDATE: She does love it!
Here’s a photo of the whole canvas
Saturday, we had sleet…briefly…but sleet, none the less.
Yesterday, I had my plants sunning on the deck in 50°F temps.
Just take a peek at the forecast for today and tomorrow!
I had the furnace on yesterday…looks like the A/C will be running tomorrow.
Never know what you’re going to get here in good old MN.
