Let's Try This Again...


Somehow, after I posted it, this post just plain got up and disappeared. I knew it was going to bug me until I replaced it, so here it is, again.

Om Mani Padme Hum, 7.75 x 7.5 inches
ingredients: antique book pages, vintage map, magazine cut-outs, image transfers, artist pens,metallic ink


To conquer oneself is a greater task than conquering others.
                                                                                                                         ~ Buddha



We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows.
                                                                                                                          ~ Buddha



Your work is to discover your work and then with all your heart to give yourself to it.
                                                                                                                           ~ Buddha


There, I feel much better now!
