Interio

Front of my House

[some how this post became a saved draft instead of being published last week - sorry if you've been looking for it from face book - damned technology!]

Week Seven of Lifebook  had Connie teach us to create house to keep our dreams in. A space to keep them safe. Some where we would write down our dreams and then let them go.

On the back of my house front I wrote my dreams. Dreams for my art, for my girls, for my marriage, for my house, for anything that came into my mind. I free wrote. That is, I wrote what ever came into my mind at the time. I think there were a few umms, involved too. I didn't re-read it, I glued the front to the back via the hinges, then cut around the door and a centre line through to the roof and then I put it in my life book box, not to be seen again..... well ok, so until I go through it at the end of the year!

Pretty cool huh. A house for my dreams - to keep them safe and sound while they grow and develop.

Do you have a house for your dreams? Have you thought about your dreams lately? I mean really thought about them? Perhaps it time you revisited them if you haven't already. 

P.S. Guys - As you probably know Google friend connect changing for non-blogger users! It's just crap yeah? Just as I get a hang of this blogging stuff the rules change yet again! 

So I would love for you to keep reading my ramblings, and if you have a moment, to chose one of the new 'follow me' options I have on my side bar - that would be awesome. x

☆ Work in Progress

Tweet

I thought that I might share a little bit of work in progress. At the moment I have a few pieces on the go. Lately, beyond my Life Book pieces, I have been working solely in my journal, but at the moment I have a painting for Inspiration Avenue on the go, as well as a canvas, and a half done journal page.

There is a very small art of me that is overwhelmed by the amount of work on the go. I am usually a one piece at a time gal.

Inspiration Avenue work in progress.

Slightly scary looking half finished journal page

Almost finished canvas.

What are you up to at the moment? Do you have multiple works on the go, or are you a one at a time kinda person like me?

P.S Google Friend Connect is ending for non-blogger users, so if you would like to still receive updates make sure you take a moment to choose another way to subscribe (in the side bar). Thanks x

☆ Capable [illustration friday]

Sometimes you just need a reminder, a little boost.

Sometimes you need to remember you are human, and not a super hero.

Sometimes you need to go to bed at a ridiculously early hour, and try not to fit everything into one day.

Sometimes you need to realise that you are more capable than you know.

Have you recognised your capabilities lately? Have you looked a bit deeper and seen that you are a super star?

Maybe it is time you did.

Have a great week.
