Hello Friday, so good to see you!
Have you seen the hashtag, #poeticdiversion? It's a twitter space to share tweet-sized poems and poetic thoughts. Some of our friends are there regularly. #Poeticdiverson helps take the focus off stressful topics and onto something that's good, right, and poetic.
I've been collaging--a lot. Mixed media helps take my mind off of stressful things too. This week I graduated from greeting cards and bookmarks to a piece of art...just because #poeticdiversion.

Thank you to Ramona from Pleasures from the Page for hosting our round-up this week.
Oooh... Imagining things scratched on windows with diamond stars ... or star diamonds. Creativity is so important. Keep indulging!
ReplyDeleteLove that you found beautiful words & imagined those starry windows, Linda. I haven't done any of my word collages this week & they are such fun! Thanks for your inspiration!
ReplyDeleteThe words "scratch spell" symbolize what the art is speaking. I love that you moved to a larger surface to bring out your poetic diversion, Linda. The colors and collage font bring out the mood so beautifully. Love the ending-Star diamonds!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely collage you created as a diversion and shared with us. I love the illustration in the lower right corner. Linda, your link is to a previous week. If you want to reenter your link with this week's link, I can delete the earlier one.
ReplyDeleteThe link I'm talking about is the one on Mr. Linky. Probably not a problem, since people know to click on your blog to get to your latest blog post.
DeleteOh! Thanks!
DeleteWow, Linda, that is amazing!
ReplyDeleteYour collages are always beautiful and inspiring. I'm excited that you've moved this on to a larger scale! Both words and art are stunning, each enhancing the other.
ReplyDeleteLinda, I like your poetic diversions and pursuit of creativeness in collage poetry. It not only provides a welcome distraction, it brings about discovery and something worthwhile. Love the poem and the vision of Moonlight Jazz Angels.
ReplyDeleteYour collage is stunning, Linda! I'm swooning over "jazz angels" and "star diamonds!"
ReplyDeleteWonderful, Linda! I love the colors and the words: Jazz, Moonlight, Star. It must have been fun to make.
ReplyDeleteI'm ready to be transported by your
ReplyDelete"Moonlight Jazz Angels"
Rich poem and piece, I like the subdued colors and strong textures, very nice!
Wow, personalized dares etched into windows with star diamonds? What imagery!
ReplyDeleteI love your creativity, Linda, and that you are honoring it with all of your "making"! This is wonderful, and I join those swooning at "star diamonds." :0)
ReplyDeleteSorry I missed this. You are developing into quite the collage artist. I love this, the colors, the words, the tone...Ah!
ReplyDeleteGolly how beautiful! I'm struck by the words but the big deal here for me is the overall design, the tones the arrangement the colors the background and contrast the TEXTURES! You should do an online workshop and get us to pay you to spend a coupla hours with you....
