There is a candle in your heart,
ready to be kindled.
There is a void in your soul,
ready to be filled.
You feel it, don't you.
Rumi
I spent the early afternoon finishing my journal page for this month's prompt, Struggle, over at A Year in the Life of an Art Journal.
Left Page
Various papers, my handwritten note, one of my linocut circle stamps, gesso and acrylics.
Right Page
Self-Portrait photograph, Rumi Quote, circles stamped using the bottom of a wine bottle, found clasp, and acylics.
I ended the afternoon with a ride to the park and and a run in the woods. I love riding and running in the crisp air. I'm enjoying Autumn in full color here and wishing everyone a good weekend.
also joining Sunday Sketches and Glue it Tuesday (see links below)

Beautiful, beautiful lines. Totally captured my mind/hear this morning. Thank you for sharing along with your wonderful journal pages.
Yes, lately, I'm into Rumi.
ReplyDeleteThanks again, everyone, for your lovely visits and comments.
Congratulations, Juana, on being in-print and I am loving your art journal pages.
ReplyDeleteYour journal page is great! I like the composition and your handwriting looks so stylish!
ReplyDeleteThese pages feel like heartbeat made visible! :o) Your way with color always impresses me,Juana--you have such a talent for pairings--color/pattern/materials! It is easy to gravitate to autumn colors just now. The leaves are going fast here. And last weekend we changed the clocks back. This week I pay special attentiong to the changing qualities of the light. It's nice to back in blogland and catching up with everyone. I hope to be around more when I can, now I'm doing better--I'm online a little less still these days. The less technology is not a bad things.. LOL! I posted for the first time in weeks--it felt good, sweet! HAPPY DAYS, my friend ((HUGS))
