Illustration Friday: Deja-vu

What Awaits Me

In my waking hours
the morning air, cool and crisp
the sunrise, exquisite
the eastern sky,
soft goldenrod and pale pink,
The colors of a timid flamingo.

Here's wishing everyone a happy and ambitious 2011! I tried my hand at a couple of ATCs. I used collage images from 1940s and 1960s Life magazines. They're alot of fun to read as well! It was a few years ago but people weren't all that different and many of the same products we use today were advertised. Of course, there was World War II but we have our own brand of wars today, unfortunately.

As for resolutions, I'm not too much on making them myself. I do hope this year to finally graduate from collage after going back to school later in life, paint with joy in my heart and write some noir poetry.
