 One day I was working on some collage stuff and literally whipped this out in a few minutes. I was recently reviewing one of my art journals. Looking through it, reflecting on what it might have to teach me...that kind of thing...and I came across this page. It made me smile and laugh. I love this bird stretched out in the grass, hanging on for dear life and yet looking so balanced and poised. The playful line, "Look what we found" reminds me of what happens when I create. It often feels like, "Wow, I had no idea that was there." It is playful, a little hairy and soulful all at the same time. I love coming across this stuff months after I create it. In the moment, it may not seem very important but it sits and waits for me. When I return to it and am ready, BAM, I get the gift and for today, that was the reminder of how much I love this work and how it takes me to places I might not otherwise go. It teaches me and stretches me and helps me to grow. Amazing!!!! CommentsLeave a Reply |  AuthorMy name is Caralyn Henry and I am the owner of Expressive H'arts Studio.
