When I chose the topic for this week's challenge at Inspiration Avenue, I realized that the only thing I could choose was "Change." It seems like the most challenging opportunities for change occur whether we want them to or not. I selected some quotes and images that I felt illustrated the challenge but I saved one for my digital collage. You can view the post and the other entries here.
I really identified with all of the quotes I included but one seemed especially bittersweet.
All changes, even the most longed for, have their melancholy; for what
we leave behind us is a part of ourselves; we must die to one life
before we can enter another. Anatole France

DeleteTHis is beautiful and subtle in its message, Lou Anne. Beautifully done!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your feedback Abby. I appreciate it very much!
DeleteThat's a very true quote. I love this and marvel that you've found a way to incorporate such vivid, bright colours when perhaps the quote would lead towards darker ones. There's sunshine beaming on you from somewhere, girlie. Sending you hugs from me and the Colonel xxxx - Shroo:)xxx
ReplyDeleteThank you Shroo! (And the Colonel.) I love what you see in my work. And I appreciate the idea of sunshine beaming from me! You're full of sunshine yourself!
