What I am Offering this year in Spectrum...

Good Medicine: The Art of Falling Apart


<>Come get Good Medicine with me while we explore the art of falling apart into the bones of a deliciously messy, inky, drippy art journal page. Starry eyed with song lyric and lines that tear at our insides only to medicate us back together again. Charting territories of emotion where words pull & tug at you, and where line and color caress & lighthouse you home.
Come fall apart with me.<>

  1. I pinned your workshop on my board, funny this is the second time this week I was asked to name my favorite lyric, not by a band but a song from the mid-19th century, that speaks to my soul. Thank you for the chance to share it and to be given a spot in Spectrum this year.
    'Tis the gift to be simple, 'tis the gift to be free

    'Tis the gift to come down where we ought to be,

    And when we find ourselves in the place just right,

    'Twill be in the valley of love and delight.

    When true simplicity is gained,

    To bow and to bend we shan't be ashamed,

    To turn, turn will be our delight,

    Till by turning, turning we come 'round right.[

  2. So many song lyrics to choose from! A recent favorite is "that's a fine looking high horse" from Hozier's Take Me to Church. It's a good reminder to stay humble. I pinned the workshop link on my Online Art Classes board.

    i want to be on instgram but my old technology does not support it. i am continuing to work on making it happen.

    Oh don't you dare look back
    Just keep your eyes on me.
    I said your holding back,
    She said shut up and dance with me!...

    Deep in her eyes,
    I think I see the future.
    I realize this is my last chance...

    This woman is my destiny
    She said oh oh oh
    Shut up and dance with me

    From "Shut Up and Dance With Me
    Fun Guns

  5. Tweeted (I'm still learning Instagram ...). I love these lyrics from Deep Down:

    They say, they say
    We should have known better than to
    fall so deep down, deep down
    into this rabbit hole we found

    and i was thinking
    on the long way down here
    no life, no light, no sight. no sound down here
    hold my hand now
    eyes closed don't stop down deep
    into this pool of regrettable situations
    pitch black
    think back to the last time
    that we were happy

    Thanks for the chance to win!

  7. I tweeted about this blog post. My favorite lyrics (hard to choose, I love poetry and song so much!) are the words to "Fragile" by Sting.
    f blood will flow when flesh and steel are one
    Drying in the color of the evening sun
    Tomorrow's rain will wash the stains away
    But something in our minds will always stay
    Perhaps this final act was meant
    To clinch a lifetime's argument
    That nothing comes from violence and nothing ever could
    For all those born beneath an angry star
    Lest we forget how fragile we are
    On and on the rain will fall
    Like tears from a star
    Like tears from a star
    On and on the rain will say
    How fragile we are
    How fragile we are
    On and on the rain will fall
    Like tears from a star
    Like tears from a star
    On and on the rain will say
    How fragile we are
    How fragile we are
    How fragile we are
    How fragile we are

  8. I "shared" your FB blog hop post from your FB page on mine. I'm afraid I am not so seen on favourite things as a general option; I just enjoy/love things without singling them out so much. I can't think off the top of my head a lyric to choose. Instead I'll share a current artist that I'm really enjoying : Wendy McNeill is an amazing quirky storyteller musician and so amazing in person. I highly recommend checking her out. And even looking up the stories behind her songs!

    Ok, one of her albums lists song lyrics...

    I wrote for the wanting
    I wrote for the need
    I wrote for the wind
    What it gifted me
    Wide the wonder
    Wild the hunger
    Eyes like the sea
    I felt them melting through me
    Until all I could see
    Was precious

  9. Shared on Facebook! One of my favorite new lyrics is by Seven Lions featuring Davey Havok in the song 'December'

    "I saw... your breath... decorate the air" For whatever reason I think it's quite beautiful.

  10. I shared on Pintrest. One of my favorite lyrics is from the Black Keys, Little Black Submarines

    Oh can it be
    The voices calling me
    They get lost
    And out of time
    I should've seen it glow
    But everybody knows
    That a broken heart is blind
