I am an excitable person who only understands life lyrically, musically, in whom feelings are much stronger as reason. I am so thirsty for the marvelous that only the marvelous has power over me. Anything I can not transform into something marvelous, I let go. Reality doesn’t impress me. I only believe in intoxication, in ecstasy, and when ordinary life shackles me, I escape, one way or another. No more walls. Anaïs Nin

I look for things to use in my art journals in our household trash. This cardboard piece was large, and I cut it down into smaller pieces. It makes wonderful lines that create layers and texture on my pages. It’s one of my favorite things to use right now. I find myself reaching for it all the time.

I always think it’s so cute when I see Maude being affectionate to Harold. It doesn’t happen a lot, so I adore this photo of her hugging him. It’s usually Harold hugging Maude. He’s more affectionate and needier than Maude. She doesn’t mind all his attention, but rarely gives it back in return..she’s a selfish little taker, not a giver of her love. haha Come to think of it, she’s the same way with me. Everything must be done exactly Maude’s way. She ain’t got time for me otherwise.

Spring is so fickle. One day it’s 90F, and the next day it’s 45F. The poor leaves are so confused, and so am I. One day I’ll be wearing shorts, and the next day, I need a hoodie. brrr.

I might be a little quieter (word-wise) this week because I’m working on another commissioned painting. I’ll still have some photos to post, tho. I’ve been enjoying these photo blogs I’ve been doing lately, and will keep it up. I’ve often thought of turning this into a photoblog only, no writing. It’s really not best for seo, and ranking on Google, tho.
