Happy November!
I used one one of @reviveyourroar's poems on my moon post a few days ago. She has a powerful voice and I adore this one about making space for beginnings.
some beginnings
look like
starting.
some look like
stopping
leaving
trying again.
changing your mind.
some beginnings
look suspiciously
like endings
until enough
time passes
to see
nothing
was taken
from you.
life was
just
making space.
Originally there was an 8th page on my summer concertina rainbow book.I started it...didn't love it...and wasn't motivated to figure it out. Summer was over weeks ago. So I ripped it off and felt liberated. I worked my way from pink to purple....there are seven official colors in the rainbow....and seven pages. That seems like a good place to stop.....so I'm calling it done making space for something new.
For those of you new to the blog...I started this at the beginning of the summer as a creative practice project.....and I loved it. I traced stencils onto an accordion folded concertina and filled in with watercolor, colored pencil, paint pens, fused fabric and paper collage.
I started with pink....because thanks to Kimberly I fully embrace that pink belongs in a rainbow.
