Gratitude


Dear friends,
Here is some art I did to celebrate me doing a gratitude each day on my other blog and on other sites. I am also posting it as a challenge for a prompt on love as gratitude definitely comes from love.

Quiet time


Dear friends, This is a super simple piece of art celebrating the quiet times in my rapid cycling moods with bipolar. Life is simple and gentle when I am quiet and sometimes I feel like a blue butterfly.

Stacey


Dear friends,
My friend Stacey Apeitos died of breast cancer a week ago. Check her name online and read all about her. She has been a wonderful inspiration in my life and continues to be even in her death. Her enthusiasm and love of life and her limitless energy was awesome. Love you Stacey. This is the art I did to celebrate her including things from a wonderful online friend Carol.

TAW C1 ...safety




Dear friends,
i was going to study The artist's way by Julia Cameron with a friends art course but it didn't work out and they are now just doing general art. I have had other commitments and abandoned the idea but will do this in future. I will make a note in my diary.
Wait and see in my next post the latest huge, huge adventure I am on with my art

Life...what do you want?


Dear friends,
This is a collage exploring the fact I have done so much work on my chakras and have really got in touch with my 7th chakra and the divine. I love all the colors. I loved doing this one

Success is a mind game


Dear friends,
I have had works on my computer for 3 weeks but haven't put them on. I never do it during my quiet time I always have to wait until I am zippy. I will catch up now. Not sure how many to put on.
This one is a collage I did about life and time and how it passes for me and how much of it is a game with my mind and dealing with my rapid cycling bipolar. The yacht near the edge shows how I often feel I am on the edge and not coping but the child with the lady is me taking care of my inner child. The heart is for love
