article: First pages | written down

Forgot to add the link. Duh!

I think I have verbal diarrhoea! My first pages are about change, I suppose. Many of the major changes in my life have been thrust upon me and I have been powerless to do anything about them except accept them and move on. Sound easy – believe me it isn’t. This is about the latest major change that led me to art. I left the mistakes, rubbish handwriting etc because I am beginning to accept that that is me. I don’t do straight lines. (even with a ruler). I won’t bore you with the content.
I am into clarting with ink and paint. I am using loose watercolour paper folded in half that I will sew into a book at the end. The top layer of green paint and the dark green have interference gold mixed in. Makes it kind of shiny and glittery. Used some stamps, rubber and postage.
I liked the quote be Emily Dickinson: A word is dead when it is said, some say. I say it just begins to live that day.
