OPEN TO INTERPRETATION


The fun thing for me about doing some art is that I get to put my feelings on paper...share my inner most soul with all of you. It helps me during the translation, and it isn't always obvious what the heck I am talking about, or, as they say, it's open to interpretation.

These are some small projects I've been doing. The zetti postcard is for a swap that required an art quote, and the inchies are for a "things with wings" inchie swap.

Hope you enjoyed these....and thanks for taking a peek!

WINNER!





A Big Congrat's to MELISSA MEMAN!! You are the lucky winner of Zinnia! Please email me your address and I will get it right out to you.

Thank you to everyone who played. I appreciate every comment and kindness that I receive here, and I could not do this without you! Hugs to all!!

VICTORIAN PUNK



available on etsy here




Some of you may remember my first pair of Victorian Punk earrings that were featured in Bead Trends. I thought i liked those a lot, till I decided to kick it up a bit, and made my new favorite pair, chunkier, heavier, more of a statement. I guess this freeing effect of journaling has given me a renewed strength in myself to go with it, be bolder, be myself, try not to hold back.

As always , thanks for visiting, and don't forget to enter my GIVEAWAY here. You still have a few days...I'd love to meet you and hear from you!

MY DREAMS


I finally did it, I made a journal page for myself, first time since I can't remember. It was a long time ago because I only made 2 pages before this. I have now resolved to myself that I should be able to do one a week....for myself that is. I find this is my way of letting go. I am not comfortable, at least not yet, with writing. My way of having my thoughts on paper is creating it, the process of forming it, the physical movement of touching the paper and creating texture, design. And to dream.
I dream of wearing a crown, of holding a wild bird in my hand, to be able to understand it, to be able to grow wings, leaves, or just to grow , keep growing, and finally to love unconditionally, and to understand the unknown, or to have complete faith.

ALTERED BOOK WITH LENNA




My dear friend Lenna has been the most patient person on the face of the earth while I work in my altered book , in between work, jewelry, home and health crisis, and just plain chaos here sometimes. My theme is birds...are you surprised?! I finally am sending it off to her with this much done that you see here. I am happy with it now, but there were times I wasn't. This is a BIIIIG learning experience for me, and Lenna is the best teacher. Her additions help me see what I really want to say.....
I am really grateful for the chance to do this with her. Although at the rate that I am moving, it will take a long time, I really never do want it to end!

A great weekend to all!!

Thanks for visiting!
