Tonight I finally finished my Moleskine page for Crusade no. 42. All of a sudden there was some time and, more important, some inspiration !
Een tijd geleden heb ik dit vel papier geschilderd.
A few weeks back I painted this paper. Just ordinary
In repen gescheurd en in mijn journal geplakt, en verder afgemaakt met mijn vogel-sjabloon, en wat tekst. Vrij als een vogel ... dat zou ik willen zijn. Met een lichaam wat niet altijd kan wat ik wil, de tredmolen van het leven, soms zo moeizaam, en de slapeloze nachten die eindeloos lijken ....
Ripped the paper and glued strips into my journal and finished it with my bird-template and a little text. Translated it says : Free as a bird .. that's what I want to be. With a body that often can't do what I want, the every day life, sometimes so hard, and the sleepless nights without an end ....
En dat alles lijkt weer vergeten als ik deze mooie pagina bekijk, ik vind hem echt heel mooi geworden !
And I forget all those troubles immediately looking at my page, I really love how this one turned out !
I'm with you on this one... it's a fabulous spread!! All the more beautiful because you ripped up your own paper... gorgeous!
BeantwoordenVerwijderenBrigitte - the original painting is awesome! Love that you showed it to us before you ripped it. Love that you used your paper, like Rosie said. LOVE how it turned out! Love that you translated your thoughts for us - so we can know a little more about you. You are FLYING now :)
BeantwoordenVerwijderenI don't think I could have ripped that beautiful paper you painted! But the pages turned out even more gorgeous. I love what it says.
