Celebration Time


Right now I am feeling more than a little proud of myself, for my entry for the Sketchbook Project is complete and ready to posted to America tomorrow. I have never produced so many paintings in my life and I have certainly never created so much in such a relatively short period of time. In my introduction I wrote:
“This project has been  such an amazing personal journey as I have never attempted anything like this before; not only learning how to use a paintbrush, how to creatively express mindfulness, but also to  understand painting as a ritual.”
Wow, what an adventure this has been :)
Now that I have finished I do feel rather protective of my little book, I am more than a little frightened of sending it off into the big wide world. However, the thought of at least one person opening my book and enjoying the art I have created with such love, such passion, is good enough for me. 
Here are my last pages ( she writes with a big smile on her face):
