Let Go The Illusion of Control

Let Go the Illusion of Control

While I was waiting for ""Verdure" to dry I journaled around the studies for that piece with the paint leftover on my palette. (for Mixed Media Monday's Written Word Challenge)

I love it when I am really able to just LET GO and play. That is when my art and my journaling feel the most real for me. Awesome piece and very inspiring.

Fantastic journal page! Love your vision of letting go...I just started some canvases this morning to
try my hand at 'letting go of my control' with some abstract pieces.
So far, just gessoed some canvases with black. I'll let you know how they progress!
