Day 71 In his-story

Louise Hay affirmation:   “I see my father as a loveless child, and I forgive easily.  We are both free.” (fat thighs)

Inspiration exercise from 365 Daily Creativity Journal:   Time travel.  Make something that seems like it came from another era in history.

Time:   2H:10M

Comments: Though all the products in this collage are brand new, they possess an aged quality. 

 

Interesting perspective to view one's father as a loveless child and to forgive easily.  The candles symbolize a variation on my father's family name.  The forlorn little dog staring at his bottle of alcohol has significance as well.  The empty chair reminded me of a school child of another era who's told to go sit in the corner.
