I Tried

found myself playing with watercolor pencils and caran d'arche crayons to finish this page today. now to take a part of the doodles and transfer to 10 Text Techniques idea.

what a great day - just beautiful, hubby and i rode to Jamestown, walked along beach chasing butterflies. we purchased new cookware and made shrimp creole and dirty rice together. fun cooking w/ him. then to top day off we took a walk in NewTown before the sun set. Can it get any better than this? i think not!

The Sound of Color

could not decide which i liked

too late its black - point of no return.

21 Secrets

Art Studio Redo

everthing has been pushed to the center of the room

waiting for window tech. to measure for new windows

ugh

what a mess but opportunity to clean and reorganize

and

everything came down off the walls today almost

next week red walls being painted more relaxing color

Engaged

my son ask his sweet, wonderful girlfriend to marry him.

of course, they both have another year in college,

but

we'll let God be God and enjoy their relationship developing deeper.

i am so happy, ecstatic actually.

he is writing an incredible song for her.

Fully Alive, Fully Engaged

today i awakened to a work in progress - ME,

but another one also in my artistic endeavors.

i joined 21 Secrets to begin anew in exploring life.

AND

MARK ME

then my son invaded my space - not really

BUT

his spirit did explode within mine and we resonated together.

his music

his heart

my art

my heart

ONE

the sun is shining brightly

AND

i've been outside in my backyard dancing

to his heart expressed in music. a beautiful melody,

rays of electricity being sent out into the universe.

i absolutely love his rhythm.

Over One Year

a milestone

tis true

Decluttering Still

Marina's ATC

well think i will clean out this site. i'm deleting my favs so no one can get access. maybe in a month or two i will add them back. seems someone has access to my email addy.

why do hackers seem to enjoy destroying other's property.

and

i have decluttered my fabrics and books/magazines. a friend that does mucho charity work took it all. it feels great. i'm getting there. also packed up 6 boxes of books and sent them to new homes in US for ladies to enjoy reading. how great is that! i still need to organize and declutter more of my studio area then i will be on to the attic and outdoor areas.

so freeing!!
