Visions of Art

This is a new area for me. Art is something that doesn't come naturally. The harder I tried the more it hurt when I had bad results. I was surrounded by natural artists. They saw color in a way I never did. They understood drawing and perspective. I was told on a number occasions that I'm "just not a nutural, but good at other things" and that was from my 7th grade art teacher. As a result I gave up and let the people around me make art.

The need to create didn't stop there. I could knit and sew and do most all fiber arts so I did that for many years. My heart was happy when I was creating...anything. It didn't matter what it was I had to create.

Last week I discovered the video clips made by suzi blu!!!!!!!!!! OMG I am so in love with her spirit and her message. Suzi Blu told me (me me me) that I can make art. Then she does amazing things like magic with drawings, paper, oils pastels, inks, glue, paints, canvas you name it she uses it. I love Suzi Blu.

I bought a journal to make art in it's so pretty. It was made in Napal with dried leaves and it has handmade paper in it. I love my art journal. I love making art. My heart sings and I have painted dreams.....thanks to Suzi Blu
