Layers



I played with the idea of layers in my journal today, over a two-page spread.  Like the layers of sediment when you see a cross section of the earth, I applied gesso, acrylic, ink, watercolour, pencils and collage papers, allowing myself to just go with the flow... 


This meditation took an hour and a half while it poured with rain outside and I felt very peaceful at the end of it.

  2. I wish I could experience this with my art, Patti. It has yet to happen. I like hearing about it though because it shows me how art can be therapeutic and I have hope. I know that this is possible for me once I crack through something--a wall, a barrier of some sort.

    I really like how you are experimenting and trying different things, different ideas, Patti. xoO
