kickin' around in my creative shoes

I played with oil pastels.

And it was fun.

I am so inspired by Kal. She is incredibly talented and she encourages you to play and get messy and have fun. So I did!

I ripped out a page from an old book that had a passage that I thought fit my frame of mind this evening. That passage made me think of dreams and night time.... thus the moon. And then the dark night sky which I made into a sun-setting sky. I added some silver sequins for stars. And a little message to myself written with a Sharpie marker.

One little piece of art work. One girl who feels good to have made something fun.

(oh, I have to ask - how are you viewing my images? The pictures I've loaded today seem very pixelated (even over there in the left column in my 'little details' photo album) and I can't figure out if it's me or if typepad is a bit screwy with loading them today???? any comments on that would be appreciated!!!!!)
