It was cleaning day today ... especially in the studio where a thick layer of cement dust lay over absolutely everything. I must say, I don't know what I would do without Marta! Especially now with the arthritis acting up. She even wiped down the walls, while I sat and tried to 'de dust' all the little stuff. It is sooo much better, and there are no longer footprints on the floor when you walk (a good sign, I believe!).
It was mid afternoon before I settled to do anything creative. Nothing came easy today, and I wandered from one thing to another, trying to find 'the zone'. Nothing really peaked my interest, however, I did leave a couple of things completed on the table.
Experimenting with small organic looking note cards made from hand made paper. I think I might like it better if the string was plain. |
A post card. I'm beginning to really have fun making these. |
More journal pages. Experimenting to see if I can write with white gel pen on these dark surfaces. |
After this set, I only have a couple more sets to go before my thirty two page journal is ready to use. Have to think about how I want to bind it. |
Thank you all so much for dropping by. Thank you for your interest in what I have to say and what I am creating. You are all AMAZING! Thank you for all the loveliness you leave as comments with your words and your thoughts. It truly lifts me up, and makes this space somewhere I love to come to share my creativity and a little part of myself.
