Money grows on trees
Still trying to give myself permission to not work a Real Job for a few months and see if that openness a wider creative flow, stream river. What ever.. It’s hard for me to leave the money out of it mostly because I have spent so many years being ruled by the fear of not having enough to even meet my basics – which I have narrowed down to a pretty slim budget. Now I say Leave the money out of the equation – a least for a few months. I’ve tried to say this before but this time it’s a little more realistic – at least for a few months.
Recently I’ve been making collages and mobiles from fallen autumn leaves. The leaves are already dry and are “free of charge” therefore there is very little cost involved in making these little works of are. After the leaves are pressed in heavy books they do need to be preserved with a coat of ModgePodge which also enhances their natural color. I have started with a series of mobiles with “Words for Thought” hand printed on them with a rubber stamp. I call them Thought-Full Words.
