What is my art Michi?

Falling....falling....like Alice in Wonderland...down the rabbit hole.  Where is this art journey of mine leading?  I feel befuddled. This year's Life Book course has been wonderful with exposure to some great artists, exciting lessons and guest instructors, and lots of completed multi-media projects. It has been a time and discipline commitment, and I've learned a tremendous amount. But what has the work been for? This year, I set aside doing most of my other creative work.  Now, the Life Book course year is coming to a close, and I'm asking myself what the purpose of this year's work has been. I have a decision to make soon...whether to continue with the course in 2016.  So, like Alice, have I started an adventure that is calling me to places and depths I've never been -- for me, in my art? Then who wouldn't want the adventure to continue? Image by Katogi Mari

A Life Book 2015 project...

Revision October 11, 2015 First Posted Version This was created using the same technique and substrate that were used for the piece in the last post.  The hand-made stencil for the female outline didn't work so well (note the blobs) and the area around her is fairly barren in the bottom picture.  So, I drew a henna-like design in white Posca pen with light blue Posca pen highlights. Overall, the design added works -- though the lower right portion is a bit skewed.
