Now just how much can I put on a page?

Dscn2230 The page on the left has acrylic paint, gel medium, oil pastel, angelina fibers, aluminum foil, and fabric paints on it. Its the angelina that makes that floating white light towards the center of the 2 pages.



I have 2 books going right now and I just fiddle faddle here and there throughout the day on various pages.  I can't wait to return to the thrift store for more old hard cover books.  Its really all about the colour shape and form for me and its the same with my quilts.  I keep thinking I need to portray something in realistic form or make a clear cut statement about something...but (and it has been this way for a long while) I'm just not in that space with the visual thing for myself right now.  The cognitive (literary/thinking) and the expressive Dscn2234_2(visual/emotional) are residing in two seperate huts.

    I am intrigued with this. I might have to do some playing after the holidays.

    I think it's ok to let yourself forget about the literal, & just be playful & in the moment. It's food for the soul!
