Space (to breathe)

Nothing like beginning something new to remind me of something unfinished.

I began this little book of collages in the summer, and this week I decided to call it done.

Usually I’ll keep squeezing in more and more detail, but something I love seeing in others’ art is a balance of muchness and quiet places.

I decided to rein in my muchness, just to see what happened…

I soon realised the only way for this to work with my freight train brain is by distraction:

I need to move right onto something else, cos there’s no stopping the urge to maximimalize.

Consequently this book was only allowed out to play while a lot of other stuff was in progress 😅

Here are the finished (as in – don’t let me go back to fill in the spaces) pages!
