Inspired by my brief time Living and Breathing in Asia.
Nepal and India became a sort of home to me.
A harsh home of sorts.
A place where I swam in my thoughts, discovering a lot about who I was not.
A place of rich and varying color and sounds.
I found whom I loved most in these countries, even if he wasn’t who I thought he was.
I discovered my voice as an artist in the pages of my journals.
I discovered I am above all, most at home on the move being submersed in new cultures.
I was not always present in those months.
But it has taught me how such a vibrant intense place can become ordinary.
So this ordinary home of mine I can make into magic.
Such beautiful imagery of your trip – love our palette.
‘your’ palette!
I tried to find your email address but am not seeing a link on your blog. I am the author of 1000 Artist Journal Pages, and several doodling books, and I am now working on a follow-up to 1000 AJP and am looking for artists to submit journal pages. I LOVE your journal pages. PLEASE email me ASAP! Thank you!!!
You and your art are sublime, like a soothing song I heard in childhood that today reminds me of fragments of sunshine, laughter, confusion, quiet, sorrow, hiding under my bed and hiding in my imaginary world. That’s all for now, I’m going to scroll back up to soak in your creations one more time.
Like Lisa said, the colors! a bit of perfection really – well perfectly imperfect anyways.
Big Love you to you,
Katariina
