(He)arting it out
So much on my mind, in my head, on my heart…

Surrounded by sick people = no art
We took Mum to hospital Saturday afternoon and the Dr told us he didn’t think she would pull through this time. I spent the night in the recliner beside her, and yesterday she was still critical. Today she is looking better, although the blood results fro her kidneys do not show any improvement yet. Fingers crossed.
Tony saw a private specialist on Monday and is having surgery this Friday for a 20cm (yes, cm) clot in his left leg. Huge drama there too…and huge thanks to my best mate, Sandra, for taking him in and looking after him when I can’t be there (the hospital is over 4 hours away)
So, no art happening at the moment, and not even a lot of sleep.

More Gelli Plate prints
I have been playing with Gelli Plate prints again, using a combination of ready-made stencils and masks I have cut from heavy laminating pouches. Some may get used as they are, others I’ll work back into then cut up and use in my art journals. It’s late spring here and already I am finding the Golden Fluid acrylics are drying quite quickly, I think I might need to start using a little medium to slow down the drying time.

Making vintage postcards
I have spent a good part of the morning making vintage-style postcards. For me it’s a good way to use up old supplies, get my fingers inky and brain into art mode, and then I’m inspired to write to people using my new postcards . Talk about win-win!
I try to write a few letters a month, with a fountain pen and awesome ink colours (currently using Lierre Sauvage), because so many people only ever receive bills in the mail, and email is so transient.
