art journal 2014

New year, new project...



"Surrender to what is.
Let go of what was.
Have faith in what will be."
S. Ricotti
  
I ran across these words and could not get them out of my mind.  They struck an instant chord and became my mantra, a string of words that brought me out of the darkness.  

I have never kept a journal but I think I can keep a sketch book.  Wanting to celebrate this mantra I began creating around it.

Because I am a person of action I decided to create an art journal.  Creating a collage helps me sift through my thoughts and feelings as I work with color, texture, words and images--deepening my understanding.  (It's cheap therapy and a whole lot of fun.)
