Exploring quiet time

Dear friends,
I am exploring how I can cope better with my quiet time which occasionally is quite dark. I can get quite reflective and moody. i am trying to find a better way to travel these times by finding more pleasant activities than sitting. I tend not to do my art work or creative things. I am going to encourage myself to do more gardening, cooking and other varied activities.
The collage has me sitting on a seat pondering about my decisions. I want to be friends with my quiet time not just my zippy times. I want to nurture my mind, body and soul.

Inner child collage

Dear friends,
This is my inner child collage where I am exploring my inner child. I love to meditate and converse with my inner child. There is some darkness for my inner child and I am journaling to work through it and with it. There is a tree of life in the work and gold paint to show the wisdom.
Thanks for your comments.

Stamping

Dear friends, It has been awhile since I posted any art. I did this in my last creative, zippy time. It is where I have used a homemade flower stamp and applying glue to it and stamping on the page and letting it dry and then stamping some more with purple acrylic paint and then applying acrylic paint wash over the top. Interesting bit of play.
I have also been doing a collage about my down and quiet times and have posted it on my other blog....

thanks for being here with me.
