Fabric/Paper Collage
Vintage isn't my typical style/colour palette but I do like it. I am having a lot of fun with these little collages and look forward to putting them all together into some sort of book. These little collages have got only one positive comment. Thank you, Collete, for your affirming words! I don't make my art for other people so positive comments are not totally necessary. However, right now maybe I am feeling more vulnerable or less confident, just not quite myself. Understandable for sure. Anyway, the one positive comment has gone a long way to strengthening my resolve to continue down this collage path. It really only matters that I like them.

I loved your vulnerability here too... I feel unsettled, and nervous, which leaks over into my art of course. We are at war in a sense, and personal work comes out of war time for artists. We can't help but put our feelings into our art.

I think vulnerability is becoming easier for me. Certainly, not my natural way of being though! Still, I am learning to trust there are kind people in this world.
Your collage is beautiful, balanced and crisp. As for the quote, like the collages with words you made in the past, I think it is up to the person looking at your art to interpret it.
On purpose (?) you put in a line break between 'he was commissioned to' and 'eternity'. So it could be interpreted as 'the guardian angel has been appointed to escort you to paradise' or 'it is the doctor's call to look after you for a long time, until you are well again'.
To me the quote shows there is something good at the end of the LONG tunnel.
So enjoy spending time with your granddaughter, but insist on plenty of 'me time'.
All the best
