Thank you, thank you - for all the enthusiastic responses on the introduction of the FEATURING team! I know for a fact that the team members are walking on clouds right now!

Furrows

November 18, 2011 By Marit 20 Comments

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...]

Going (olive) green

November 1, 2011 By Marit 16 Comments

I'm hooked... I bought this olive green paint last week and since then all my pages come out green! I used to be a yellow - orange - red kinda person! I don't know what happened but all of a sudden I love this colour so much. Why analyse anyway... I let go and make green … [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...]
