Below are images of art n craft projects created over this sunny weekend with my favorite 5-year-old!:) Some old magazines, a little glue and a whole lotta love = hours of color-filled play. After all, Life is about using the whole box of crayons.
Aren't the clouds beautiful? They look like big balls of cotton... I could just lie here all day, and watch them drift by... If you use your imagination, you can see lots of things in the cloud formations... What do you think you see, Linus?"- Charles M. Schulz, The Complete Peanuts
"You must not blame me if I do talk to the clouds." - Henry Thoreau
"A Dream is where a boy can swim in the deepest oceans and fly over the highest clouds." JK Rowling, Harry Potter & The Prisoner of Azkaban
"Take your pleasure seriously." — Charles Eames. Its been a great start to the week with a friend moving to town and bringing me my own first real bicycle. These last few days have been filled with a mild bicycle obsession as well the discovery of a fun new technique of making stamps. It's no real wonder that this post is filled with bikes, stamps and love!:)
Having been trained as a textile designer, stamps remind me of the block printing techniques in India and the immense potential and beauty of these primitive tools that almost seem to display scant regard to mechanization. Wikipedia describes the woodblock printing practiced in India as the earliest, simplest and slowest of all methods of printing. However, it is also capable of producing otherwise unattainable beauty.
Needless to add, an entirely worthwhile endeavor!
