Chaos

Sometimes life just feels very chaotic

a page from my multimedia art journal

My spare room is in chaos

My closet is in chaos

And yet I can find everything.

Under that chaos lies order :)


This week's fragments

The weather was pretty miserable all week - wet, windy and cold. The Summer just vanished but it's been good this afternoon so hopefully we'll get some warm sunny days.

I had one of my favourite foods this week - Dahi Puri  (Yoghurt, potatoes, sprouted moong beans in a puri with various spicy and sweet chutneys). Love this junk food.



Other than that I really can't think of anything exciting to share.

Happy Weekend

Butterfly

Looking forward to the long weekend

Monday is the Wellington Anniversary holiday hence a long weekend. Looking forward to an extra day at home.

What has that got to do with butterflies? Nothing at all but here is a butterfly painting I did.

Fragments from my week

I finally started my mixed media art journal. I plan to journal at least once a week, I'm also going to start a watercolour journal. Will share these in future posts.

Started reading The Celestine Prophecy. I had read it many many years ago and enjoyed it back then. Thought I would read it again. Often books read differently on 2nd readings.

I had a long overdue haircut this morning but I think it's got a bit too short - I miss my longer hair :(  I guess it will grow out again in a few weeks.

I hope you all had a good week. Enjoy your weekend.

Art

Art - my new passion for 2016

At the end of last year I took up watercolour painting and I am loving it.  Art is so relaxing. I was between jobs and thought I would try my hand at it.

So here is my impression of Uluru or Ayer's Rock in Australia. Looks pretty easy to paint, but trust me it is not.


The Aboriginal people believe that Uluru was created at the beginning of time by Spirit people and is hence considered a sacred or spiritual place.

I've never been to Uluru but would  love to visit. Somehow I've always felt it was a place of significance though I don't know what that significance is. Perhaps that will be clear when I get there someday.

This week I went back to work - same place I finished up at in September so I am thrilled to be back there as I love it there.

My son got accepted into the Architecture Master's programme so I am thrilled about that and so proud of my boy.

Been reading Beyond Past Lives by Mira Kelley - an interesting read though some parts of it I did not resonate with. But then that is what books are all about - you take what feels right and discard what doesn't. Her book raised a lot of questions so I guess from that perspective that's good.  Will have to meditate on the answers.

I hope you all had a good week.
