BOATS, STARS and SWEET TIME...

THOUGHTS OF SUMMER 
June 7, 2011 

For some inexplicable reason, summer is a reflective time for me... thoughts and possibilities are endless and plentiful! I found a wonderful and challenging online magazine that fits right into my frame of mind. SMITH MAGAZINE  is a U.S. based online magazine devoted to storytelling in all its forms and it welcomes contributions from all its readers. Since 2008, it's been quite well known for its series of Six-Word Memoirs Projects. A memoir is any story that encapsulates your life, what you remember, what's important to you. The six-word form is wonderful because it helps you distill what's really important. Some of these projects include six-word memoirs on love and heartbreak, memoirs for teens, on the Green Life, on America...there are so many now that you're sure to find several in which to participate. I'm going to include one in each of my future postings. Here's the first...
"Like who I am...still growing" 
 On to the BOATS, STARS and SWEET TIME portion of this posting...responses to art challenges. I do love doing these bits and pieces of art as they charge my imagination.    


The boat-themed pieces above are for SUNDAY POSTCARD ART 
A skyful of stars, requested by TAKE A WORD...

Thoughts of sweet TIME, provoked by COLLAGE OBSESSION
Finally, requested by THE THREE MUSES, THE WRITTEN WORD
 Have a wonderful, productive week and I hope to see you for my next posting...next week.

XOX,
abbyj

    Love the lady on the pier and the time collage with the worn sneaker, Abby!

    I like your time pieces ... a little play on words there, I guess, but I do like them a lot!

    Hello just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The text in your content seem
    to be running off the screen in Ie. I'm not sure if
    this is a formatting issue or something to do with web browser compatibility but I thought I'd post to let you know.
    The layout look great though! Hope you get the issue fixed soon. Kudos
