Feathers - A Connection with Spirituality

I have made a commitment to myself 

to do things that I like 

in order to discover who I truly am.

Some of you might not even understand that

how can someone not know themselves?

but when you live an overprotected life,

where you were taught to do as is said 

and learn how to please everybody else

you kind of loose yourself growing up.

But it got to the point that things change for me 

and in my personal growth journey 

I came to learn that I needed to know who I truly am

and what I really like to be happy.

So here I am exploring all the things that I like 

one step at the time.

Here is art as one of them.

But art can't stay on the paper just to look pretty;

for me it has to mean something

it has to be practical, functional, useful.

I made these feathers

I chose a split complementary color scheme 

inspired by Mixed Media Monthly Challenge blog

using blue-violet and blue-green.

           

Feathers is one of my favorite things

I believe I read somewhere that

 feathers represents a connection to spirituality

so just perfect for me

I also made three feathers, using three colors

 following Simon Says Challenge

After spraying the feathers

I decided to fill them up 

But I just couldn't leave it on the paper

I had to cut them out and see what would they look like 

Pretty I think :)

So here it is keeping me company on my computer desk :)

I would love to see what are you making, writing or reading

leave me a comment to come visit you

Much love,

WOYWW 461 Tiny Pages

Wow this week just flew by especially the weekend.

This week I am posting pictures of the pages of my tiny book
a lot of you have asked to see them, which makes me super happy :)
and as promised here they are

Let me start by explaining that this pages are about some of the things I like

I love...

Coffee, yes I love coffee

and I don't know what am I going to do the day I have to leave it 

for some health reason or something lol

I love to learn, and grow

I love to read, write,

and investigate my inner self more and more

I love nature

so I put the little mushrooms there

it was as close as nature as I had in art supplies ha ha ha

and that little stamp says Give Thanks

which is one of the things I always do

I love cultures and languages

so as soon as I saw this scrapbook paper 

I had to put it in my little book 

I love the beach

yes, thank goodness I live in Florida

but just so you know

 my dream place to live (again) is in Puerto Rico

I love art

I just can't leave this out

I love art 

I love art

I love art

it just feels so renewing, healing, grounding, inspiring, creative

did I say?

I love art? lol

I think I would be a happy camper if I could teach art too :)

Oh my gosh, this is another one that I just love!!!

I love to dance, some latin music baby

oh, I can feel it! ha ha ha

And the last page of my tiny book is that 

I love tiny things

Now of course there is a lot more things that I love

like yoga, meditation, doodling, writing, reading...

but I just couldn't fit it in my tiny book

which gives me a great idea of making things that shows others

what do I love and what am I all about :)

Thank you for stopping by

Lots of love,

Clemencia
