Piece of Art
Yesterday I did a piece in my new pregnancy journal (click on this link to see better detail). Don't know if you can read the writing, but it talks about feeling trapped in my own body. I'm feeling so much better now, but during the worst of my nausea and fatigue and dizziness, I wanted nothing more than to just step away from my own body for a while and have a break. But as we all know, that's not possible... And although I feel better, I thought it was important to document that part of this pregnancy, since it really affected me mentally.
I really like the "unfinished" look of the piece. I rarely leave any of the paper substrate showing through when I work, but on this piece, it just felt right. I find it interesting that the page I worked on is page #41, since Riley was born at 41 weeks (much to my chagrin!), so I hope this baby doesn't follow suit!Please send me your good vibes on Friday morning, as that is when my book idea is being proposed to the publisher. Wish me luck!

Yay, beautiful new art! I like the empty spaces, and I love how the girl is in the tree top. Thanks for sharing, and good luck Friday, can't wait to hear about the book!
I love the unfinished look of your page.
The girl being constrained in the line image is appropriate too.
I really like this page, it fits how you were feeling.
