3 x 3 x sunshine

one snip of sky blue thread holding the soft raveled wing of a brown bird



a music note or two on the wire with softly torn words . life gently balanced

my late fall afternoon wish for you using bits papers thread and cloth

with the other side . so true . yet tender . continuing into the sunny shadows

I am grateful to be here again this month to encourage you take a moment to create
in any way that inspires

as you know from previous posts I enjoy 3 x 3 inch collage
not too overwhelming . takes little space . materials . time
a special way to take a break from your day

three by three x two

when someone feels a gentle pull
to photograph . to write . to create
simple ordinary objects are seen differently

words signal emotions

recycled muslin bag soften to hearts

a drop of paint musters a new beginning

those of you reading this
write posts that stir the soul
wield a camera as an artists brush
create art in all mediums . simple and complex

the 3 x 3 collages below are made with
bits and pieces of ordinary seen differently
[with special messages on the back]

leave a comment .. invite your friends as well
and I will choose two names this Saturday night [10.2]
and announce them as "Sunday Shops" open

one . day . simply

I am ELK . blogger of very few words . influenced by art and life
torn papers . frayed fabric . cast aside pieces . call to me
inspiration takes form on a 3 inch by 3 inch paper

a snip of an ivory doily found languishing upon a thrift store shelf
becomes a part of this piece yet any medium works together
photos . paint . magazines . wood . wire . nature . words

3 x 3 collage can be a gentle escape for a busy life . it takes little time
with no strict rules . small enough not to overwhelm you or your space

grateful thanks to Kim for the chance to share this art form here each month
I encourage you to try this . leaving a link below
so that we can be inspired together . one square at a time
blessings . ELK
