This is not
“Something that is created with imagination and skill and that is beautiful or that expresses important ideas or feelings” – Merriam Webster dictionary
This collage does express visually to me why it has been nearly 4 months (?!!) since I posted here and how I feel and it is important to me, so maybe it is art, albeit not good…
This Is Not Art
I find some comfort in Salvador Dali‘s words:
Have no fear of perfection, you’ll never reach it!
🙂

Great to see your post and the collage takes me to many memories and thoughts of recent events and of our future travelling and our time here at Balligar. :-)xx
Whether what I do is art or not I’ll leave for others to decide. I don’t really care if my work is considered art . . . it’s fun! And yes Salvador Dali had it exactly right.
I love your attitude and will emulate 🙂
You’ve been busy Helen !! Lots of lovely sketches and paintings. I particularly like your little man in a hat 🙂
Thanks Poppytump. I have been very busy and have to make time to do a quick sketch each day in my diary. I want hours and hours to spend painting but I can’t seem to find them. I wonder sometimes if my busyness is a form of procrastination!! 🙂
Helen,
I disagree – to me each work I see in the above collage is a work of art. Every image has been produced with some sort of emotional connection and I personally enjoy that.
Loved Harvey’s images 🙂
Keep up the good art work.
Loved Dali’s quote, made a note in my diary.

Thanks Jeff. Delighted you recognized Harvey. I’m making time to do a quick sketch in my diary of of the ‘thing’ that dominates my mind when recalling the day. So when we see Harvey the choice of sketch is a no-brainer! 🙂
