new art project


I felt like I needed a little break from writing and revising, so I started a new art project. I got a taste for doing collages last summer when I did a big collage with my kids (see it in this post), so I decided it was finally time to start another one. Here is the design I sketched last night:


It feels good to let my creativity flow in another direction now and then.

  4. Art drew us together. (you like that pun? hee hee hee) I am very grateful that we have stuck together (ooh - a collage pun - I am on a roll!) and that we share the creativity trait. Have fun with your project!

  5. Sharon -- The fact that he read it all the way through means big points for you! Thanks for stopping by.

    Faith and Catherine -- Yes, it will be fun. Spring break is next week so I'll have plenty of time to work on it. I might even let my kids help again. ;-)

    @ngie -- You crack me up! Maybe we should try doing a project together. I'm sure we could figure something out even with the thousands of miles now between us.

  6. I spent half of yesterday working on an art project (photos). Not sure if I was procrastinating from my writing, but it felt good anyway. Creativity must express itself!

  7. I wish I had more time for drawing-- it used to be one of my passions (now overtaken by writing). I always hope I'll get back to it one day.
