2019 Year of Art in Review

My work-life balance in 2019 was less healthy than 2018.   Surprisingly, though, there were more art accomplishments  over the year than I expected.   Those arts-related accomplishments for 2019 include having: *Made 29 Blog Posts *Completed a video log (VLOG) for every day in February! *Produced 2 iMovies of art piece processes *Continued my art journal practice and completed 43 pages *Watched and totally enjoyed these movies:  The Biggest Little Farm, Rocketman, Pavarotti, The Public, Knives Out, and Aeronauts *Created about 40 new shimmering ornaments   *Visited the wonderful Mosaic Tile House in southern Cailfornia with a creative friend  *Enjoyed a Creative Club art-making session (to decorate wooden bird houses) *Attended a special Chris Botti trumpet concert at a local outdoor arts venue *Made 2 collages in 2019 Woman Unleashed Online Retreat (Winter solstice)   *Kept an Awesome Jar and have reviewed the contents (self-affirming messages of appreciation/positivity

Another collage - eager to make an appearance...

There is much more in this collage than what you see.  It started with finding a few images that seemed to want to be 'together' and setting them aside -- while working on a totally different project. This morning, this piece actually came together in a very unusual way.  That said, its so amazing to see what happens when you give up control and allow the process to be the ultimate guide.

The First Exercise from Woman Unleashed 2019

Its a journal page...creating an intention for the group that is getting together for this online retreat.  What fun!
