handmade journal

i rediscovered the simple joys of 

hunting for a focal image,

 randomly ripping and tearing, gluing,

splash of serendipitous paint to prepare

journal pages.  then documenting bits of my 

life by journaling.  many of you know that

for many years,  i did this daily each morning

in my neighborhood cafe.   before realizing  

what happened i got away from this lovely 

habit.  looking back, i see that learning to paint  

took over.  but now i am delighted that there is time 

for both.  since i have had so many problems with collaging 

i am writing a future blog post on my favorite adhesives

including a personal adhesive mix,  

if you get a chance, click on the pop up gallery tab

to view the art in my most recent solo show. 

have a lovely weekend!
