Who would ever guess that I would cut up my first major painting titled "Metamorphosis'.
I decided it was time for my painting to have a metamorphosis of its own- evolving into many new "lives" of artwork! My original painting represented the artist in me slowly emerging. It was here that I originally posted about it , and its meaning to me.

Here is another piece in the works - created from my original hummingbird
( made of leather) with a new background of acrylics, stamped images and gorgeous butterflies from Alicia of Altered Bits which I copied onto old "sheet music".
I've also reworked mypoem written for the Buried Treasure Collaboration to express the continued changes within myself.
Found
I love that smile place in my heart
Where every moment’s vision is shining,
When I want more of everything.
When time is too short for each second that goes by.
Where colors are brilliantly vivid
And I want to capture every moment -
By holding on tight
To every exciting captivating vision in sight.
When I become filled with energy, creativity and everything seems new.
When there’s so much stimulus surrounding me that I can barely take it all in.
When that magical inner peace is here.
I love it when my body is still and quiet
Enabling me to find my own voice, soul and body's dynamic.Now empowered to fly
To the limitless places of the dreams I have
In no defined way-
Finding the place where I'm free-
Traveling like a "forever" butterfly.
Exploring, exploding creativity,
Emitting electricity,
In a continuous state of synchronicity
I find my own reciprocity.
And this new state
Is what I now call home.
