Hi there everyone, hope you are having a fantastic Saturday morning :) Right now I am so wishing I could get up this early every morning! I loooooovee mornings! But I also love my sleep.
Anyway, I hope, hope hope you have considered joining in on this project, the self-portrait project. The idea can be daunting at first, but just remember it’s nothing but a reflection of YOU. You can read more about what inspired this project here.
Think of it as a gateway to express who you are, who you used to be and who you have become through all of your experiences.
A good place to start is by collecting pictures and papers that have meaning – cards, notes, quotes, scripture.. anything that has been meaningful to you along this journey. Plane tickets, movie tickets, receipts, hospital bands- you name it. That’s sort of what I’ll be doing~ collecting things like this and either collaging them or photocopying them first and using the photocopy in my collage.
Collage is just one idea though.
Your self-portrait can be a painting on your mirror! It can be a sculpture made of clay, a photograph, anything.
I just feel the need to A- get back into my studio, and B- EXPRESS what I feel like inside!!
I have not started mine, but I will share the piece when it’s done in another post. If you decide to join in, you can post about your piece on your blog and come back and share the link with us here :)
Sending peace to you this weekend ♥
I had to laugh because I love mornings so much too… but also love sleep! :) What a great project idea. Looking forward to seeing how you express YOU! ♥
lol ;) Thanks Jennifer!! xx
I work 3rd shift, so I get to catch the sunrise and all the goodness of morning…and then go to sleep. :-)
I’ve been wanting to get back into painting for a while. I think this project may be just the push I’ve been needing.
Such a lovely idea… I will start thinking about mine but I’m not very artistic :( Love sleep too. Thinking of you always xoxo
