Here we are at Friday Even again!
Last night I was fiddling around at my art desk and I was using some orange bits of paper that were the product of some testing I was doing and some torn music pages. It started out not too terrible, but then I put on some blue and.....it just felt like it had nowhere good to go, so I threw a door on it and called it done. LOL Would someone let the cat in please????
It might be the door to my brain and all that other is what is on the inside. Don't agree with that too enthusiastically or I might be forced to be offended.
🤣
The other night I decided to play in my journal because I didn't really know what I wanted to start next. I used some of the blue papers I had made the weekend before, some music and the book page hearts that the seller sent that I bought the stamps from I showed you before.
I don't put hearts in a lot of the pieces that I make, even though I am attracted to the shape. In my journal though and at Valentine's, it's all ok.
I only worked half a day today. I had an appointment to have some blood drawn for my routine check-up next week and then I was going to look around in another Goodwill store that is close by. That Goodwill is bigger than the one in my small town and I was hoping to make some fun finds to play with in my art. No luck though, but after, when I got back to my area, I went to the Goodwill here. They actually had some new stuff, although in the end, nothing that I needed.
While I was looking though, there were three or four journals for sale, most empty. One of them had a leather-look cover and a string that went around it about 3 times to keep it closed. I opened and let the pages flow from the edge of my thumb as it kind of appeared to have some very porous paper in it that may have had some fibers in it. Just as I was wondering if I might want to buy it for the paper, there near the front, was a page that had already been written on.
Oh Ohhhhhhh someone was misbehaving. I wondered if their Mother's saw this. LOL !! As I stood there the thought also crossed my mind.... wonder if someone else randomly wrote in this book, just to make it a more interesting find to the next person that looked at it. Along the way I have found bookmarks in some of the books for sale and things that weren't bookmarks, but were USED as bookmarks. This was the first time I had seen a note about dropping acid and getting high.
It made me entertain the thought for a second, wonder if I would write some small notes or funny things on old paper, just snippets and then leave them in some of the books I don't buy, just for future entertainment value.... Hmmmmmm
Funny... right?
That's it for this evening, time to redress and go play.
Take Care and Stay Safe!
