Excited...

I found this lovely purple A4 sized 2011 diary on sale for a few bucks.

My excitement reflects the magic that has begun because of this book?

Maybe...

i have been very stuck in 2011

creatively

personally

organisationally

until today

i have been clearing boxes, piles, drawers.

clearing clutter feels so good

one little bit at a time

i get distracted looking, reading, reminiscing, considering

all the papers, cards, letters, artwork

you know what i mean?

what does one do with the things that you want to keep?

how do you store it, display it, keep it?

well i am using this diary

not as a diary, but an excellent art journal

yay

i am inspired but web artists, love their inspirations & ideas

so am taking action and creating a document with

my art, feelings, collected bits, photos, notes and treasures

it is so lovely already

i can add to it whenever i like

it is not chronological

it has moved me to paint

my kids took an art class this holidays and i was inspired by the colour

so simple and combines many elements that i like

doing art with my kids over last few days has been

divine

i am an artist

i need to paint

regularly

it is so good for me

i highly recommend it....

do your self a favour and start one if you haven't for a while

these are ones i love.....
