    The 'Thelma and Louise' File, inspired by the photo taking in the famous film - throw the camera out to arms length, and just shoot. Framing, sizing...it's irrelevant. Its all about capturing the moment. Here's me, capturing the moment with special friends, near and far....

travel/art journal

I have been searching for the perfect book to take with me to Canada - I wanted something that wasn't too heavy, was flexible, could be easily added to.... and since I couldn't find exactly what I wanted, I made it.

Materials:

Boxboard - 2 X 9x9 inch pieces
Basic Grey Papers (Recess range)
American Crafts foam alphas
Kraft card
Black card
White Linen Paper
Hinged rings

So far I have only added a small map of the island and my flight itinerary, but I intend on using it as a daily journal, photo and ephemera album and more. It will encapsulate my internship, the conference and the personal experiences.

Words to Live By

  • WABI SABI
    ...the beauty of things impermanent and incomplete.... Wabi-Sabi is the release of control. It avoids beating up the creative soulo for not achieving perfection. Recognising and embracing our imperfections allows room for growth. The only result for demanding perfection is certain failure... prefection is a cruel boss. It leads to giving up, depression and anger rather than eagerness for growth and improvement. Living a Wabi-Sabi life means letting go of the stress of competition, relentless achievement, and replacing them with a willingness to let life find its own pace... In a Wabi-Sabi life, you recognise all things are impermanent, imperfect and incomplete. Once you open the door to imperfection, a creative force rushes into your life... We dont know what will happen tomorrow. Often we cant influence the future. What we think of as failure is simply a lack if knowing. You dont always have to know. And you dont always have to be in control. Take off that heavy obligation of knowing and controlling...then decide right now. In this moment. To live and grow, And leave perfection behind. - Quinn McDonald - Sommerset Studio March/April 2006
