Saturday I sat to watch yet another silly holiday movie and I thought, “I haven’t really created anything tangible today. Nothing I can point to and say, like a young child, look what I made!”
It reminds me of elementary school art class: it isn’t that I crave acknowledgment because I am one of those rare folks apparently who do quite fine without other people’s approval.
What I did next fits perfectly within my creative themes lately:
I grabbed a leftover masonite board, some mod podge, and a crayon sketch I made earlier in the day along with some papers I had used in other projects and started tearing and gluing, tearing and gluing, tearing and gluing.
It is a part of my fledgling “Fragment” series which I realize I have been working on for a while without knowing. I have been working with fragments of books in fragments of time all along. Now, however, I am being mindful with the action yet completely intuitive in my process.

I love what this board is speaking to me.
