Taking Gemma's journal to Glastonbury seemed like the most natural thing in the world to do - for after all, has not this group of artistic ladies named their project 'magical journal journeys'?
And just look at the cover - dragon skin for sure!
So, I carried the book of magic up to the Tor and to the Chalice Well. At the Well it took a light shower in the healing spring water - luckily dragon skin is quite water resistant!
And then, back home and suitably inspired by feminine energy, I created a homage to Mother Earth in these two pages.
I feel a change in me, a shift in the currents. Something long dormant has woken, a spell broken by another... The urge to create is strong in this one...
(I'm also sharing these sketches with the Sunday Sketchers - I have long been absent from my friends there!)

ReplyDeleteI love that you took Gemma's journal to Glastonbury & infused it with the magic & spirit that exists there!! And your collage of images, writing and beautiful drawing in her pages are wonderful especially in the way they reflect your creative spirit and the birth of new creative ventures. I'm not surprised that Gemma, in her words above, LOVE LOVE LOVEs!
ReplyDeleteI am so rubbish my friend in that I've not yet found you the best inspirational accomodation in Cornwall for the course leaders. I will keep thinking & asking around. I'm just a little hampered by continuous visitors at the minute. But I won't forget or give up.
