An Art Marathon

I spent the entire day yesterday, from 7 AM till almost midnight (with the exception of a few small breaks), working on Sally Turlington's journal. The theme she chose for her altered calendar is "Not Yo Mama's Michelangelo & Da Vinci" - what a hoot! I worked on the month of June in the book. This is part of a year long journal collaboration with a group of talented artists from MMCA. Oh my goodness, the work already in this book is beautiful and inspiring; so much so that it's always a bit difficult to begin that first page. But begin I did, and I kept at it until I was finished. Doing this many pages in a day is a first for me, but knowing my daughter and family with be arriving in 3 days made it important for me to get it done while it was quiet, and I could put my whole heart into it.
