I'm a little late, but this is what I did in response to Sarah Whitmire's taped page soul journaling prompt. I'd like to try it again with the tape laid out in more of grid. It was a neat background for sure, but it didn't feel done until I put some writing and images on top ... so I did one of my hearts. This heart felt a little naked; I'm used to gunking a lot more mediums on top. I found a good use for some of my rusty nail collection though!
This is also my entry for Inspire Me Thursday. I didn't really plan it this way, but it includes lots of opposites ... dark and light ... hard and soft ... vulnerable and tough.
Really, really beautiful Karen! I always enjoy seeing your new work!
ReplyDeleteHugs! Vale :)
Karen your art is beautiful I have visited before and I thought it had been awhile. Well worth the wait.
ReplyDeleteNice!!!! Always so glad when you post, makes the world a sweeter place. Don't know how you do it, work and school. LisaTM
ReplyDeleteAnother powerful journal entry. I think this heart looks more vulnerable than a lot of the others you've done; it makes the nails more harmful.
