Map of My Heart

Where does the map of my heart lead?
My map journeys through textures, colors and patterns to stones and woods. They lend a feeling toward that which is natural, organic, warm and cozy.

I'm still working on where my I think my heart wants me to go.

"Knowing what you truly love is the key to loving how you live. A simple way to begin to know what you truly love is to gather beautiful images that speak to your soul. So, let's do just that. Gather scissors, glue, your favorite magazines and your art journal. Place them all together in a basket or other container and keep it by your bed. At night after the kids are asleep, the day's responsibilities are (hopefully) taken care of and you can devote a few minutes of relaxed down time (stop laughing), crawl up on your bed and flip through the magazines. When you see a picture you love, cut it out and paste it in your art journal... Now listen to me because this part is very important. Do not over think your choices. You do not need to have a reason why an image speaks to you...it simply must speak to you. Also, do not plan or fret over the arrangement of the images on the page, just paste them on a page one at a time. Let your collages happen, evolve. At the end of two weeks, (yes, do this for two weeks) crawl onto your bed, snuggle up with your art journal and look at the pages you have created. I expect that you will find colors, patterns, themes, styles, things... something... which reveals loves, hopes, passions you've never realized. Your collages will give you directions where your heart wants to go...a map of your heart... Tell me, where does the map of your heart lead?"
