Spent Thanksgiving with family, which was great after such a long absence. It's a holiday that I really miss, so I was glad for the chance to be able to celebrate it once again.&nbsp; <br /><br />I've picked out a painting I made in one of my art journal books a couple months ago.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKKCU3q7DMuaxc2zOHhSYrxC7Pc8iEOQujd50oeIdGOCZWsIq5tgVL2qAHyRaNeS28-4lfMBpt1aSeSHIhCO6bXehlV8HQeR22K8JmDfig70PvGKSXishZOTRmlP7F-jVKkJ03BXdwjcQ/s1600/painting7+copy.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="476" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKKCU3q7DMuaxc2zOHhSYrxC7Pc8iEOQujd50oeIdGOCZWsIq5tgVL2qAHyRaNeS28-4lfMBpt1aSeSHIhCO6bXehlV8HQeR22K8JmDfig70PvGKSXishZOTRmlP7F-jVKkJ03BXdwjcQ/s640/painting7+copy.jpg" width="640" /></a></div><br />The poem is as follows:<br /><br />youthful mermaids<br /><br />where sunflowers grow and fairies fly<br />we crawl to the stars and turn our ears<br />to stories of nature<br />woven with power<br /><br />you think it's unbelievable<br />hand in the blue, colors to enjoy<br />the night's legends of purple stone<br />that live in grace and marble<br /><br />is this the closest we come?<br /><br />I like the visual effect of the clipped lines on the page - they help create the breaks and pauses and of course, the alignment is free form which does affect the reading of the poem. It's lots of fun doing this, and I encourage you all to try your hand at it - with or without your own painting! :)<br /><br /></content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://dustysidewalks.blogspot.com/feeds/6700983289160696581/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7235280592858599445&postID=6700983289160696581&isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7235280592858599445/posts/default/6700983289160696581'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7235280592858599445/posts/default/6700983289160696581'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://dustysidewalks.blogspot.com/2015/12/youthful-merimaids-journal-page-and-poem.html' title='Youthful merimaids journal page and poem'/><author><name>Emily</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07691778613660930779</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='21' src='//blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjg76gmS2gRHrXvAaKJEROa37-66Ve6ZqUCR1dBTONMMQKJVfQ1oLgzT3lKaC47tFHVxgsoQC0qazuYMyYZnKLR39ETet2f19LiU_5DGcWV4ogduu9aNcEyAfX0jDBSpQ/s150/DSC_5395.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media="http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/" url="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgKKCU3q7DMuaxc2zOHhSYrxC7Pc8iEOQujd50oeIdGOCZWsIq5tgVL2qAHyRaNeS28-4lfMBpt1aSeSHIhCO6bXehlV8HQeR22K8JmDfig70PvGKSXishZOTRmlP7F-jVKkJ03BXdwjcQ/s72-c/painting7+copy.jpg" height="72" width="72"/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7235280592858599445.post-9196963436663521586</id><published>2015-11-11T14:57:00.002+01:00</published><updated>2015-11-11T14:57:34.802+01:00</updated><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="acrylic"/><category scheme="http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#" term="painting"/><title type='text'>Sunshine days painting</title><content type='html'>I made a series of these paintings about a year ago.
