EXPRESSION of COLOUR

Today is my turn over at

 GREEN TARA 

'ART'

I built this layout around one of my fave stamps 

'As long as we have memories,

YESTERDAY remains.

As long as we have hope,

TOMORROW  awaits,

As long as we have ART,

TODAY is wonderful'

I 'D LIKE  TO EXPLAIN A LITTLE BIT ABOUT  THE MEANING BEHIND THIS PAGE

As I am becoming older I feel more comfortable with who I am .

When I looked at my completed page I noticed the connecting thread of the colors ,

 art brings all parts of me together, the healer, my inner child, the warrior, my professional self,

 my nurturing side, and my passionate self.

Art to me is an expression  of color and design reflecting my inner self, my mind body and soul .

Each color has its own meaning and energy

Green/ balance

 yellow / communication

Pink/ compassion

 white /actualising

Black / strength.

I have journaled these words on the back of my layout for future reading and reflection.

  Pink Roses, pink rose buds, white flower sprays, 

deep pink and pink cherry blossoms mixed with green leaves .

Pink and green are such beautiful complimentary colors

 and these blooms showcase them perfectly
