Bird is the Word

Acrylic Ink, Collage, Acrylic Paint, Tissue Paper, Tim Holtz Stamps, and Sharpie

So as part of my ongoing quest at art therapy, I have take to joining a couple of lovely Art Journaling blogs to help inspire my creativity.  One of my favourite sites is A Year in the Life of an Art Journal.  It's an inspiring place and I encourage you to check it out.  Anyway, if I had any tech savvy what so ever, I would figure out how to put a badge over there --> in the places I love, but alas I get confused about the html.   A project for another day.  Okay, so the prompt was Bird is the Word, and the challenge was doodle or construct yourself as a bird.   The very first thing that popped into my head was the song "Blackbird" by the Beatles.  It's one of my all time favourites.  There is something hauntingly beautiful about the song and it resonants within me.    Maybe it is because I could be that blackbird, learning to sing and fly despite the darkness.  Maybe this is my moment to arise and become the woman I was meant to be inspite of the depression, and the anxiety.   If I know one thing, is that I am well on my way to becoming exactly who it is I want to be.

Stay Safe,
