Serendipitous

Journaling is not about the destination but the journey it took you on to get you there.

K.I.S.S.

So much time has past since I wrote anything of substance in this journal. The words seem to play in my mind, changing places to better suit the image I wish to create but to no avail. The moment I set fingers to motion on the keyboard, the scramble off like children, laughing at my inability to collect them all in one swoop.

This year has been one of change.

Illustration Friday: Giant

Illustration Friday strikes again. I began with one of my photographs of a small black bug on a flower. Then I was bored so I drew the girl. I guess the whole point is, who is truly the giant? Is it the flower, which the girl uses as a hat, the girl, who dwarfs the bug or is the bug a giant of some unknown? Everything is perspective.

I really need to work on my noses and the right eye is a bit wonky but that's something I need to work on.

Illustration Friday: Satellite

Well, this has been a very long hiatus. I wish I could tell you that all of this time has been spent creating and living the artist life but alas, no. Instead, I will tell you that in the past year I have been seeing my children flourish and become supernovas. If that is not Art, then I don't know what is.

My daughter and I have begun to participate in Illustration Friday and so this is where this lovely being came into existence. I feel extremely rusty but my fingers itched with excitement as I saw her come to life.

Creative Outlets

I go though phases. They are motivated by time obviously and maybe less obvious, season. Fall makes me want to go outside. I have no time to sit and draw, I want to walk and play and experience the world at large. This is why I always loved photography. So, I decided to try a new project with the goal of posting one new photograph a day. I hope you will join me and if you stop by, say hello.
