I have had a couple of family members pass on this summer. It has caused me to think a lot about family and what our family means to us. Time...and how precious it is...time already past. How we really should treasure each moment. I added a copy of an old photograph of 2 of my relatives from the past...along with old-fashioned vintage dolls and clocks. I colored the brown background with 2 different shades of brown crayon and then once I had enough wax built up I took a brown marker and went over that smearing it with my fingers to sort of stain it. I really like the patina effect it gave it.
AND I guess partially because I am totally aware of the passing of time as well as loved ones...among other reasons..I have really been having to fight off getting into a depressed state of mind. SO I figured since this is how I was feeling one day....I should just show it on paper.
On Labor Day I woke up to a nice wonderful rainy cool day ...and a tremendous migraine. I decided to do a page about that....
Another sun face......all in blue.....I just liked the colors so much and the face.....
I am not sure what got me to thinking about monkeys...and I always think of sea monkeys and Wizard of Oz monkeys when I think of monkeys. I love them both though the Wizard of Oz monkeys still sort of scare me!
Well.....I am sleepy......and will probably take a nap before the big Ohio State game tonight.
Question is......
WHAT have YOU wrecked lately??
