Everyone who knows me, knows that I am a realist in both my life and in my art. It is very difficult for me to be abstract, which to me seems chaotic and disorganized. Never the one to say "I can't do that!", I have started this daily booklet that I created from recent mono prints, cut to a larger Artist Technique Sample Card (ATSC) format of 4 1/2" X 3", the perfect size for journaling on! To inspire me, I have added a "Proverb" of sorts to each card and everyday, using the proverb as a guide, I will alter the card and journal my thoughts. It is a challenge that I hope others find intriguing enough to: "Give it a try!" It's purely for fun & entertainment, but along the way, I have hopes that this will have a positive effect and open other pathways of my mind.
