sparkle

the snaps don’t show

 in the sunshine today

my path home sparkled

chose to see it that way

i like that

…and so you don’t think i am completely off my rocker: “cement is primarily made up of calcium carbonite, some of which is in crystalline form and can reflect light. Smaller chunks regularly end up in cement. After being ground and heated these crystals are evenly dispersed, making the cement sparkle”.

heARTbeatgal’s contribution for To The Power of N

thirteen squares of beautiful paper

from my local vietnamese haberdashery

the artist, Joel Lambeth, is seeking thirteen identical bits of “something”

for inclusion in the artists’ materials of his collaborative collage project

how could i not collaborate?

they are en route to australia now, along with my good vibes

painter

it may only be recently that i call myself artist first, after mother

more than three years now that i have been compelled to create

but it was always quietly present

i remember well the feeling painting this watercolour portrait of my mother

memory fails me, but this was a decade or so ago

it was the same deeply satisfying creative bliss i tap into regularly now

glimpses of what i now know will forever be with me

i thank the spirits for painting

…when n equals twelve!

To The Power Of N is an ongoing creative experiment

orchestrated by australian collage artist Joel Lambeth

he chooses other collage artists to create unique collage artworks

using only  a specific set of materials provided

(exhibition catalogue 2011)

This time ’round, to the Power of N is seeking twelve artists

exponentially more brilliant!

math references and all, this is my kind of heART!!

thanks to the inter-webs for helping me to locate

these other members of my tribe

excellent fun!
