Memory lane

September 16, 2011 By Marit 30 Comments

Autumn has really set in. This morning, mist hung over the houses and the sounds coming from the city sounded muted... In Zeeland, there also is the distance sound of the fog-horn on mornings like this - that was the only thing missing here. I like the early morning mist that holds a promise … [Read more...]

Hectic weekend

August 30, 2011 By Marit 17 Comments

It's Tuesday evening, and I'm exhausted! Last weekend was very hectic and took a lot of my energy (I come to that later) and on top of that, I decided to clean the kitchen cabinets today. I'm not very fund of housekeeping tasks, and I certainly don't like cleaning but - like it or not - the … [Read more...]

More vibes…

August 16, 2011 By Marit 14 Comments

I woke up very early this morning. The sun peeped through the curtains and the room was full of light. I was just dozing off again when, in the corner of my eye, I saw something strange hovering in the air ... it looked like a smoke-curl, but it was not. The shape  of the curl changed while it … [Read more...]

Broken, repaired
and a little bit of blues…

July 26, 2011 By Marit 16 Comments

Remember this? It's the unfinished page I made for A Year in the Life of an Art Journal. I wrote in this blogpost how I struggled with the prompt, and in the end I left the page unfinished and moved on... ... to come back to it last weekend! I had some spare time and … [Read more...]

Blaahhh & unfinished artwork

July 19, 2011 By Marit 19 Comments

My creative life ain't really 'flowing' the last weeks. I can't seem to focus or work on a page for longer than an hour or so... I guess it all has to do with watching the Tour de France and writing articles for CmF in between. A girl can only have a certain amount of things on her mind and it … [Read more...]
