Living life to the fullest

June 8, 2018 By Marit 1 Comment

It’s been a couple of weeks since I blogged. “Life got in the way” is the expression but in my case it is I LET Life get in the way. I enjoy the new home, I enjoy the sunshine on my balcony, I enjoy reading a book and I enjoy walking through town with my beloved, visiting the various festivals that the season brings in Middelburg (last week VOLkoren, a “Choir-festival” with 186 various choirs singing on squares, in parks and in churches.)

But every now and then I spend an hour or so in my atelier, working on an object for an exhibition in August (more about that in a future blogpost) or creating a page in my art journal. Given the fact that I don’t spend much time in my creative space, I’m surprised myself that I got some spreads in my “Chronicles” art journal done.

Yes – ‘girls from Zeeland’ in the traditional costume on the week 19 spread. Yes – a walk along the seaside in week 20 and yes – a fabulous natural phenomena: heavy thunderstorms with lightning all over town in week 21.

Life is good.
Enjoy it.

    Hi Zeeuws meisje, wat is er weer veel moois te zien en leuks te lezen in je journal pages. Mijn hart trekt vooral naar die mysterieuze pagina in zwart en wit… Gaat mijn grafische zieltje van zingen!
