Comments:  Enjoying the view from this 1972 Nat Geo picture of a red frog's belly, which is perfectly matched in color by random sea grasses and coral in some other part of the world.  Then eerily mimicked in a modern day wire box structure from Interior Design magazine in 2013.  I rejoice in the bright colors of nature and the ability of humans to recognize and borrow from it to create new viewing angles.

Louise Hay affirmation:   “I release all fear and doubts.”

Inspiration exercise from 365 Daily Creativity Journal:   Work with only music media: old cd’s, records, cassettes, eight-track cartridges, or reel-to-reel tape and/or their cases.

Media:  Scrapbook paper, National Geographic magazine photos, The Etude magazine record player advertisement, Watercolor, Catalog photos, Mod Podge

Time:  1H:30M

Comments:  Mixed images of record players, headphones, and undersea coral that looks like scary ears for day's collage about releasing all fear and doubts.  Little more dark and abstract than some of my other efforts, but it seems to work for the theme and for my mood today.

Louise Hay affirmation:   “My thoughts are creative.”

Inspiration exercise from 365 Daily Creativity Journal:   Make a postage stamp or make something out of stamps.

Media:  Scrapbook paper, Magazine photos, Mod Podge, Postage Stamp

Time:  1H:40M

Comments:  Listened to a couple podcasts regarding a book called Secret Journey to Planet Serpo this week.  Thought provoking if true.  Inspired today's collage featuring an old Nat. Geo. photo of planet Mars... that somehow turned into a tasty bowl of meteor stew?   

The postage stamp I chose features view from space of planet Earth and a flying bird, with the slogan "Save Our Air."   Save our air, indeed.
