I suppose if I had chosen the word peace yesterday it would match nicely with today…my word for Q is quiet. Peace and quiet…we all need it…and it’s not about being anti-social or grumpy. We all need alone time and certain projects require the solitude and tranquility, I think. That’s what I feel anyway. I did a bit of doodling and watercolor, but often don’t get the intensity I want from watercolor. So I went over with some markers…hehe…

I actually had a hard time choosing a word for the letter P. Lots of negative words popped up in my mind, but I didn’t want to settle for any of them. No poo-poo-ing today! So finally I settled upon the word possible. Anything is possible… we must not limit ourselves, right? I just did a bit of drawing and watercoloring… sort of crazy messy 🙂

For the letter O, I chose the word outside. Sometimes I don’t even know what I’m doing…just creative play…

For the letter N, I chose the word naughty and nice and funny how I realized now that I used the word “and” instead of “or” – I guess that’s unconsciously revealing the two sides of all of us…hehe. I first started just doodling, but didn’t like my scary santa so collaged over him with papers. Still turned out a bit scary looking, but I had fun collaging. I really love the papers that have so many fibers in them…warm and fuzzy!

For the letter M, I chose the word magicamente, which is Italian for magically. I actually ripped it off the box of my coffee flavor for today’s page. I always refer to creating things as “magic” because it does seem so amazing that raw materials can be transformed into something so beautiful…whether a piece of cloth into a dress or paint into a masterpiece. The world of creating things has always been like magic to me. I went off writing on this page and just got sucked into the soothing repetition of doodling patterns…
