So, I have begun this new year with keeping a journal of thoughts, words, new creative drawings of things I want to make, and poetry I find that resonates with me. My own poetry and poetry of others...
My open journal.....
Keeping a journal is not new to me as I have other smaller ones. The difference now is I want to add consistency to my journaling. Trying to do something every day.
I have been stitching away on some new little doll faces. The one in the center turned out too somber, so a new one was begun on the right. Funny how each little face "becomes" what it wishes. No matter how hard I try to control the outcome...it just becomes the face it wants to. I took apart and re-stitched the doll in the centers face 3 times and no matter what...it was somber!
I have found a new book by Alice Walker. I could not photograph it because of the glare on the cover of the book.
It is a lovely book of poetry.
I particularly enjoyed "My Teacher"
(about Marley Mu)
and
"Calling all Grand Mothers"
