DON'T FORGET TO BREATHE

My art journal page is called "BREATHE". I love this pose in yoga called the corpse pose or SAVASANA. It is soooooooo relaxing!!!
Or you can check out all the songs about BREATHING...

MY MANDALA

This was my interpretation of a Mandala that I drew in my art journal. If you forgot what a mandala is you can read about it below. The word "mandala" is from the classical Indian language of Sanskrit. Loosely translated to mean "circle," a mandala is far more than a simple shape. It represents wholeness, and can be seen as a model for the organizational structure of life itself--a cosmic diagram that reminds us of our relation to the infinite, the world that extends both beyond and within our bodies and minds.

BRIDGES

There is an Elton John song called "BRIDGES" that reminds me of this photo that I took in Austin.
I've seen the bridge and the bridge is long And they built it high and they built it strong Strong enough to hold the weight of time Long enough to leave some of us behind
Avery and I were photographing the sunset standing on one bridge overlooking another. This was the photo that I captured.

A BRAND NEW YOU

I know that my art journal entries might look strange to some of you. This one was inspired by the things that some people do to enhance their looks. NO THANK YOU!

HUNK OF BURNING LOVE

This was a page in my art journal from a few weeks ago. I was inspired by the book of "heart" matches at the top of it. They were actually on a Valentine's Card that I gave my husband. The large cut out heart came from a card that he gave to me. Isn't that a hunk of love?
