On this very day back in 2017, I assembled this rainbow wreath.
I was a few weeks into my first Conscious Creativity class with Philippa Stanton...and I was collecting a rainbow of nature colors and textures.Little did I know how this one class would change the way I see the world.
This was my first grouping in rainbow order of grungy objects I found for the class. I'm pretty sure I still have them all.
It was a beautiful day in September day on the porch in Lexington....and I remember feeling such a sense of excitement as I started this new way of seeing and celebrating.
And it was during this class...when I started picking up found objects on a regular basis.
Here's another favorite wabi-sabi rainbow arrangement during that same fall. Seeing...and celebrating is one of my favorite things to do.




MaryAnn, I celebrate your seeing! Thank you for this heartfelt, wholehearted, tender, celebratory personal history post. Thank you for the many gifts that come my way (and the way of countless others) as a result of the life-changing connection you made with Philippa Stanton and Conscious Creativity eight years ago. Hip hip hooray!
ReplyDeleteThanks Dotty. When I stumbled across that rainbow wreath photo and realized it I assembled it on the exact day in 2017...I had to acknowledge and celebrate it. Thanks for your heartfelt appreciation.
DeleteThat wreath just explodes with color! How beautiful and I love that it brings up feelings of excitement for you! I too collect images that make me happy in my photos. I find it so calming to scroll through them when waiting for appointments.And I must look up Phillipa Stanton! As always, thanks for the inspiration! Judy
ReplyDeleteIt certainly is an explosion of color! Philippa...also known as 5ftinf, has been one of my most inspirational teachers.
DeleteI also scroll through the photos while waiting for an appointment....I agree..it's very calming.
