"Be truly glad. There is wonderful joy ahead." 1 Peter 1:6, 5x7" original art card by NAChattin 2013 |
For
the last few years I’ve had an annual “one little word” with me throughout the
year. I didn’t call it the “OLW” until later when I discovered that lots of
writers and art journalists were doing it too—and doing it in ways I really
liked. (http://aliedwards.com/blog/one-little-word
and http://onelittleword.typepad.com/
for example) I combined their techniques with mine.
One
of the many awesome God-things about joining First Christian church in WestPalm Beach was that they do a “OLW” for the entire congregation. The words are
printed on stars and drawn by every member. I drew EXPERIENCE as my OLW for
2013.
One
of my wonderful art EXPERIENCES this year has been to start doodling and
painting and collaging on cards and occasionally canvas. I’ve had a sketchbook
near me when I am relaxing and I’ve been studying the work of scads of other
artists online, mostly on Pinterest. From simple shapes to Zen-tangles, I love
using pens, paper, and glue to make designs that are unique.
