Loving my winter weekend…

I had a very cozy weekend spent mostly in sweats.

The wrapping got done.

A big pot of chili was made.

Some books got read.

( I am reading Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close by Jonathan Safran, and David is reading Inheritance by Christopher Paolini).

Naps were savored.

And furry pets happily hung out with the two of us, basking the in the glow of our pretty Christmas tree.

I also managed to do a couple of art journal pages.

It is taking some time to get back into the flow of making pages regularly.

I am feeling a little rusty.

But it also feels so good to get back to this practice. I missed it !

A kind of doodle page.

This figure emerged from a blob shape I drew in pencil on an old dictionary page.

Love those intuitive exercises. Especially when I am feeling rusty in my creative process.

This little sad-looking girlie reminds me of something out of a Tim Burton cartoon or something…

The second piece was all about my quest to keep the light around me wherever I can in these darkest of December days.

I played with some spray inks and a Crafter’s Workshop Sunburst Stencil to create this page.

I love the Maiori quote.

Going to keep those shadows behind me…
