Well I have let this blog really slide. Sometimes life gets full and that would be it here. There were some great joys this year and some very hard times as well.
I have two family members that are dealing with cancer- so far so good. I was able to be with my brother out west for his surgery.
This year I discovered the joys of art collaboration. I have connected with a wonderful group of artists from all over the world really. While there are negative issues with the social media stuff I have to say connecting with other artists with groups on social media has opened up a new world to me. Trips to the mail box now often are rewarded with art in the mail.
This piece is a journal spread I made this week. It was an assignment for a visual journaling class I am taking. It was to be a metaphorical self-portrait. It's titled Seeker.
Thank you for your stopping by this past year to visit my blog. I hope to be more regular with this in the new year. Wishing you all a new year full of good health happiness and of course art!
What a wonderful year it has been. Such a fabulous spread my friend. Hugs Brian
ReplyDeleteAnd you helped make it fabulous dear friend- love you Brian.
DeleteI love your metaphorical self-portrait! The way you've combined the elements of the collage is wonderful; I can see many layers of meaning...
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Sharmon.
DeleteI love how you use your journal to process so much of what is going on in your life. This is a great piece, Terry. I wish I was sitting next to you while you created and could be inside your head to know how each part is so important to you. :-)
ReplyDeleteThanks John- Things tend to just come out.
DeleteThanks for the kind comments on my blog. I think 500 posts is somewhat horrifying, but also rather an achievement. Can’t believe I am so wordy!
ReplyDeleteJohn takes great photos, doesn’t he? I have never taken a bad one of him.
I am very excited to take the class from the three of you. I’m sure it will fill up as time goes by. It’s a long way to August so I wouldn’t let a lack of sign ups now worry you. We will have a grand time, I’m sure.
Happy Holidays,
Thanks Michele and happy holidays to you
