Art Journaling Group.
It was my turn to present.
I showed Lyn Frye's Smallies
from her blog, A View from the Oak. Do visit!
I've mentioned her Smallies in a previous post.
For Lin it is an ongoing daily practice.
I did it for one month last winter.
I loved choosing my image or event at the end of each day.
It was like having a special lens with me,
a way to pay closer attention.
(To see my previous post, click Here.)
The idea I presented this time, to our Zoom group,
was, using a grid, to virtually invite
one another into our homes
by writing/drawing things that are close to us:
literally & figuratively.
Things we would show if we were having
guests in our homes.
I loved the personal images & stories that emerged.
My own grid ended up fading into the background,
but created a nice framework for little drawings.
It was fun to teach a little something again...
So fun!
ReplyDeleteRita what a wonderful way to enjoy each other and special things in another's home. I love Lin' s smallest. I must try this sometime. Hope you are safe friend. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteI like the smallie idea. Yours are always fascinating
ReplyDeleteSmall is less scary...I love using grids and pre-drawn frames for sketch pages.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a clever and fun idea for artist friends. (And I adore the journal page you shared.) How very clever and how much fun is that!
