mixed media on a journal page
'chanto'
ちゃんと
adv. properly, well; correctly; fittingly; justly
i heard this japanese word a lot as a child.
i took it to mean that whatever way i was doing 'it',
it wasn't proper enough.
it is one of the reasons i gravitate toward mixed media work.
there is no proper way.
whatever you do is the right, proper, correct, fitting or just.
now, how's that for fun?

Wild, Irene. Love it. I recall my home equivalent which began, 'You could just...' which was the chanto hint a suggestion for an 'improvement' would follow.
