 Collages 

In past blogs, I've shared some collages from my past. Lately I have picked it back up and it really has been my outlet. I find when I don't have a mindless brain dump safe space I tend to get locked up too much in my head.. if that makes sense. What I do is create a page for an emotion I have been stuck in, recent experiences, or the people in my life. For our spring break I had a chance to have a solo weekend at Madeira Beach and it was so peaceful to just have time to myself with no responsibilities and no one to answer too.  So I took some of the photos from that weekend and printed them on a regular inkjet printer, I have some receipts and I have a pressed flower I want to add to another page from that weekend. Then I created a page that represented my "Welcome to Florida" with a few pictures from when i first moved out here. I have some old books, magazines, and other random art supplies I use to make the process more fun. Its so therapeutic to do this, or just to have an outlet where you can get anything pent up, out. 

Here is a picture of when I was
