I can't keep my nose out of books. Any books. But especially, my HandBook. So while I was ready to put signatures together for yesterday's book, the pages in my first FTB book were crying out to worked on.
You may recognize a handful of the images from the pile I cut a few days ago. Things I cut never make it into my work so rapidly. They usually sit for months. Sometimes longer. But I'm free to make the rules and change them as I go. Working without ultimate restrictions is important for everyone, I think. For me it's imperative. And the intermediate restrictions I impose upon myself for the sake of order, well, they're mine to keep or break as I see fit.
I've made it through day 19 of Traci Bunker's 30 Days Of Get Your Art On. It's working so well for me that I just may extend it to 40, then 50... No promises. Just thinking out loud.
Great images, Barbara! No wonder they were used almost immediately in your work. Having read your spreads, it really IS amazing how one decision can impact a life's path. Had I not chosen to take a corporate transfer to another State when I was younger, I'd have never met my husband. Hugs, Terri xoxo
