Love Enough

 This new spread began as pastels blended 

from the colors of a beautiful sunrise...

...But then I saw a face emerge from the page.

I'd been wanting to draw a face for a while now

and it finally found me.

And with the many tangled but ultimately loving thoughts

spiraling and swirling through my confused and tired brain,

the hair could only be this, stamped...

Then, colored pencils in lovely warm shades...because.

Peace & Love to each of you and to all of you.

 

I have two weeks left of school teaching... 

Summer begins, officially, soon.

Any plans for you?

Take care,

Heartfelt

 I played.

I tried out my new, fat

 Caran D'Ache NeoArt

 Aquarelle water-soluable wax pastels...

and LOVE them!

I finished my last journal and started a new one!

I've always loved and collected HEARTS:

rocks, books, jewels...so it seemed fitting

to try out new supplies by scribbling

 and doodling hearts.

It felt SO good to play,

to get a bit messy and free. I highly recommend it.

And I highly recommend these pastels.

I drew, then wiped a damp paper towel over parts,

just to see what would happen

and how they would blend and work.

I see many hours...years in this together.

LOVE these.

Have an amazingly fun weekend.

Hearts,

~k

PS. I stumbled upon a tiny Trust Stamp!

Perfect! My WORD for 2013!!
