March 20, 2015 By Marit 2 Comments

When I started blogging (in 2008) I choose the web-name "Marit's Scrapworld" but it didn't take long before I realized it was the wrong name... In 2009 I discovered 'art journaling' and I never really created any scrapbook layouts anymore. So from 2011 on, I blog (and have a website) under the name … [Read more...]

Bicycles and style

March 2, 2012 By Marit 26 Comments

Time seems to fly these days and all of a sudden it's Friday again. I did not create anything last week. Well, that's not true. I wrote articles and that's creating too of course, but I mean I did not make any art that I can show you. To make this an interesting post, I came up with a … [Read more...]

Furrows

This Friday,  my haiku is dedicated to 'Spadoman' Joe This one's for you Joe - may friendship and healing surround you! Terugtrekkend water onthult diepe zorgrimpels. Verdrietig zandstrand Retreating water reveals furrows in the sand the earth seems to weep For … [Read more...]

September 13, 2011 By Marit 24 Comments

Today's post is packed with pages I made inspired by other artists and/or posts. Ofcourse we get inspiration from the world we live in, the people we met and our surroundings all the time.

Don't you just LOVE my title? I'll explain in a minute... Weird things happened this week. Strange vibes were in the air. I didn't really feel it, but when I visited a few blogs after finishing some (art)work I tumbled from one surprise into another! Nothing strange happened with this … [Read more...]

Feel strong!

April 26, 2011 By Marit 21 Comments

The cleaning (see former post) went on on Saturday, but I spend the sunny and warm Easter days hanging out in the garden.

...where it gets good! Surprised to hear music playing? Yep, my weblog is usually a 'quiet place' - but not today! My son discovered the band 'Eels' last year. He bought their cd's, saw a documentary and went to a concert. Ofcourse he played their music for us too, and I must say: he has a … [Read more...]
