Your Art is so Much a Part of You

It is Humbling to have others Appreciate

  it and to Be recognized for it.

~Field Of Wonder~

What could be more wonderful
Than the place where I walk sometimes?
Swaying like trees in rain . . .
Swaying like trees in sunshine
When breezes stir nothing but happiness . . .
What could be more lovely?
I walk in the Field of Wonder
Where colors come to be;
I stare at the sky . . .
I feel myself lifting on the wind
As the swallows lift and blow upward . . .
I see colors fade out, they die away . . .
I blow across a cloud . . . I am lifted . . .
How can I change again into a little girl
When wings are in my feeling of gladness?
This is strange to know
On a summer day at noon,
This is a wild new joy
When summer is over.
The scarlet of three maple trees
Will guide me home,
Oh mother my dear!
Fear nothing: I will come home
Before snow falls!

Hilda Conkling was an 

Eight year old Girl 

when she Wrote this Poem.

It was my Inspiration for this Piece.

My Sweet Lass is from Paper Whimsy

Along with the Butterflies and Garden Background.

She is on an Artist Canvas Embellished 

with  Many of my Favorite Things!

She will be Listed in my Etsy Store!

Have a Wonderful Valentines Day Everyone!

My First Paper Whimsy Inspire Project

I cannot Tell you How very Excited I was 

to become a 

Guest Designer for Paper Whimsy
Thank You Again Gale
for giving me this
Wonderful Opportunity!

I must Confess that 

I was a Bit Nervous about  coming up

with a Project for my First Inspire Tutorial.

 I changed my Mind Several Times

before Creating  Be Mine & Sweet.

Both are Artist Canvas Collage 

using a Blend of 

Paper, Fabric, Lace, 

and Mother of Pearl Buttons.

 Please have a Peek 

at my Paper Whimsy Inspire Tutorial

if you would Like to 

Learn how to make these for Yourself.

They are also for Purchase in my Etsy Store.

'Little Petal of my Heart' needed some company!

 

Teddy the Studio Assistant

I am so Excited about this New Adventure!
Happy Creating Everyone!!
