There is nothing to do and nowhere to go. Accepting this, we can do everything and go anywhere. In NOLA June is the start of hurricane season, kids, snowballs, kids, summer rain, kids, festivals, and KIDS!!!  Kids are everywhere!  Even in my house!  Hey...how did they get there? Better yet...how did I get here?  Ha! June has been the month of change for me.  So many different things to accept and to let go.  Needless to say I have not been able to do a thing in the studio.  Which is making me pretty crabby.  Argh!!!    I was able to be alone in the studio this past weekend and had no idea what to do.  So I just sat there looking at stuff.  Moving things from here to there not accomplishing much of anything. One thing that has been lurking in my mind is this burning desire to make a journal using coptic binding.  Why?  So I can open that baby up 360 degrees and use my most absolute FAV paper...Fabri...

Here is something interesting. Some 28,839 journals was sent out to Artists and less than 10,000 came back. It's almost like the 1,000 Journals Project by Someguy. The journals that came back are touring around the U.S.  Art journaling is one of my other passions.  I haven't been able to do any but I think about sketching in it everyday.  I have so many different journals.  I have a moleskin that I carry with me at all times, inspiration journal, an Etsy journal, experiment journal, and many more.  I can't seem to have just one!  Have a great Thursday.
