February 1, 2009 Daily Art Journal...One more time


or more.
It's easier to create a page on the weekends so I kept going. Also, this one is going to Random Arts in Saluda, NC.
I heard this phrase blurted out in a nearby cube several months ago and laughed myself sick. Must have been the context. It's one of those crispy quips that crack me up even when I don't know why. Like Ethiopian jokes in the 1980s.

Since then I've wanted to use it on a journal page. I'm also real fond of the cage image, especially copied onto a transparency. So when Jane, from Random Arts, sent me the Sweet Tweeter ephemera for the next invitational, I put the two together. The black bird is from Jane.
The blue cat appeared in a dream many many years ago and has been a kind of walk-on ever since.

Love it! Can't wait to get it in my grabby little hands! How original and interesting. You are going to love to see all these awesome pages, not to mention the completed book.
thanks for participating.

Hey, I thought you were going to lighten up! As future cliches go, it beats the now totally meaningless "blessed."
