Along the blocks we stroll, in perfect shade are we. Looking up are jewels of light between the leaves… Continue reading OctPoWriMo2019 Day 13 — The Sycamores of Sweet Street

I've made many collages with nothing in mind and let them build themselves and many where I had a specific concept in mind. Today's collage is the first one I've put together while listening to music. Mitski is my debut music collage, and I think it turned out well as far as symbolizing what her… Continue reading Coloring Club Plus (collage) — 10/13/19

Yesterday afternoon, I was unexpectedly called away to help out friends and then ended up spending the night out of town. Got back home around 11 a.m. this morning.
