I began today with normal (see previous blog entry) and now I'm at somewhere else. Just thinking about where ideas come from; "somewhere else" seems as good an answer as any. The small collages I do in my notebooks are a way to invite ideas that originate "somewhere else" to put in an appearance. This technique seems to work almost every time. Which is pretty amazing, now that I think about it. Hope I haven't jinxed it.
I really do need to get that haiku collage workshop organized, don't I?

ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful comment, Jan, thank you!
