Hmmm, New Jersey does not seem to inspire you, is it?
How come?
There’s the sea… there’s the boardwalk…
you could have made something like this.
I am inspired by the sea all the time…
I have plenty of ‘ocean inspired’ art pieces that I could show you.
Like this one
and one more …
Nout submitted some photos that he took in New Jersey, but he stated that “I was there only for a short time, there isn’t much in NJ.”
Well, how about the music then – Bruce? Bon Jovi?
These following pieces were made by different artists, inspired by music and submitted for my Top 2000 blog series over the past years. (Info on the top 2000 blog series HERE)
Bon Jovi – It’s My Live
Made by Maja
Bon Jovi – Bed Of Roses
Made by Sandra
Bruce Springsteen – Hungry Heart
Made by Carla
Well… and that’s about all there was to tell about New Jersey.
Oh, wait… I forget the fact that Julie Tucker-Wolek commented on the former post saying
“I loveeeeeeeeeeeee NJ!! But you forgot to mention Wa-Wa’s!! LOL!!! 🙂 ”
Wa-Wa’s???
I had no idea what she was talking about, but I found it on Wikipedia.

March 22:
Pat from “Altering Thoughts” wrote a blogpost about New Jersey following the BIG Road Trip. Thanks Pat!
Next week I will be on my way again and visit Delaware… is that yet another state ‘where nothing happens’?? Are there any artists in Delaware that want to host and be our guide – or do I have to read one of those boring tourist guide books?
If you are a resident of Delaware (or Maryland – which comes next) and willing to write a guest-post about ‘your state’, please contact me at bigroadtrip[at]maritspaperworld[dot]com.

I have an inspiration but it is taking a little time.

Wa-wa’s are the BEST!! LOL!!! Loving all the photos and creations!! Beautiful!! And Delaware is AWESOME for 2 things (in my opinion) — Rehobooth Beach (LOVE IT THERE!! Best Taffy in the world!) and NO SALES TAX!!!!! Gotta love that when you are shopping!! 🙂

Mooie stops op je reis! Niks in New Jersey? Ik ben er nooit geweest, maar als ik die prachtige foto’s zie mag je mij er zo neerplanten hoor. Maar goed, ik heb ook niet veel gedoe nodig. Plekken waar ‘it happens’ zijn vaak vooral druk en lawaaierig, dus laat die maar aan mij voorbij gaan.

Hihi dat is grappig, heb ik niks te melden over new jersey sta ik toch op de pagina met mijn hongerige hart.
