Year of the Dragon 1940

click on Postcard Challenge 2012 page tab for large view of postcards in chronological order

My Good Fortune Journal inspired this little do-over painting for this new project. Which by the way, I am making a journal to hold the cards and art as well as other important things like the maps and stamps of Baha and Pelago etc etc. When I get the journal a little further along.....well you know I will share that.

Shout with me! THANK GOODNESS IT'S FRIDAY!!!!!

I am loving this, such a feeling of time past, even the writing ahs that proper feel of things written to others, it is very good, one's head fills with one's own images of a time and people.

Your comments inspire me, make me smile and I never miss a one. And I just want to say Thank You for that.

Me Myself and I

I love using my hands to do anything. I get lost creating. Painting faces, collage, mixed media, and altered books are my passions.

Digging in the dirt feeds my soul. Flowers are one of God's greatest creations.

I'm shy although one might not know it. I have too many opinions and can't keep them to myself.

AND THEN........

Every now and then, I just need to touch cloth. I use unwanted clothing, cast offs, remnants, unfinished works-in-progress, cloth napkins, table cloths, curtains, and my stash which is pretty extensive.

And then, I sit and stitch. And stitch. Because stitching calms and relaxes me. It quiets the chatter in my head and keeps me upright in the chair zone in the evenings. And that is The Cloth Side Of Me.
