I had a tough day yesterday.
An unexpected, unsettling exchange with someone I had considered a friend took the wind out of my sails and triggered a whole emotional avalanche, showing me I clearly have a lot of healing left to do.

I find it sets a fresh tone and helps to shake off any residual negativity from the past twelve months.
I made my very first one in 2006, the year I lived in Hawaii. I'd been collaging as a creative outlet since childhood but hadn't thought to focus the craft in an intentional way around manifesting my desires until the dots were connected for me on a rare cloudy day in Kona, when I accepted an invitation to cut up magazines and glue the findings haphazardly onto a piece of poster board with four other women, only one of whom I knew, and she only vaguely.
