All that I am...

This week's journaling tip at amanobooks was "Know Thyself". One of the prompts on this great site was to take a picture of yourself, attach it to your journal page and then journal around it, thinking about how you would complete the phrase "I am...".


Here's what come about last night...

"And so much more..." - art journal page, June 3, 2009

Click to enlarge. Photo cropped and then printed on ink jet transparency. Transfered with Golden Gel Medium onto painted background. Text written with fountain pen and indian ink. White details done with Elmers Painter Markers - ultra fine tip.

I tried to concentrate on the positive things that I think I am, but a few negatives jumped in.

That's okay though, because it gives a more realistic picture of who I am to myself

and a reminder that I don't have to be perfect,

I just have to BE...
