Hello
Everyone - Today I Am sharing another of my art journal pages
with you. This month Susan Weckesser encouraged her Creative Team over on the My Sweet Earth Blog to see our world
with new eyes with a focus on our own backyards and our gardens. Now this
resonated with me on such a very deep level as I am spending the first year
in our new home, one that we hope to be in until we are ready to move
into assisted living (in about 30 years - we Hope!). So here is the
two-page spread I created:
The inspiration for this came from the quote I used which really did say it perfectly for me...
I
have been fortunate to have been able to travel to many wonderful
places in our beautiful world, making Art and friends along the way, but
at the end of each "journey nto the World" I Always Come Home.
And to me My Home is still the place I love the most in this World!
Our Front Yard with Cherry Tree in Full Bloom |
And the back of the house (I am standing in our vegetable garden) |
So
Why don't you go out into your own backyard and see what you can see
With New Eyes and then come back inside and make your own Art
Journal page!

DeleteI live vicariously through your pictures! LOL! I adore your art journal pages! Love the colors! What a wonderful sentiment and that birdie in the tree stamp is adorable! Your home area is gorgeous and I'm so jelly of your veggie garden! If "he who should not be named" wins the presidency, can we come and live with you?! LOL!
ReplyDeleteOh how your comments ALWAYS make me laugh out loud Girl! And "He Who Is Not To Be Named" and I have already discussed if we win the lottery we are buying out our two neighbors on the acre beside us and turning their houses into Guest Homes ...grin. SO shall I'll add you to the guest list? Thanks for the blog Lovin'
DeleteYou live in an amazing place, Lynne! I wouldn't blame you if you didn't want to go see the world, just stay at home all the time. I certainly would do just that! Who needs adventures when you have tranquility! Loving your page and the quote! Thanks for visiting my WOYWW post -sorry it took me this long to get back!
