My husband’s Blog!

My husband just put up his first post on his blog. I like it a lot. Most of his blog will be about politics but this post was about our family. I am very proud of Kevin. So please check out his blog at kevinkinsella.wordpress.com.

Traveling Journal

I am now a part of a Mahima’s Traveling Journal project. This journal will go to Nepal, India, US and Canada. Each person will create a “shrine” for another person. I am making a shrine for Ahana (http://www.frommetome.blogspot.com/) and Mahima will be making a page for me. I am really looking forward to this. It is going to be a lot of fun.

Thoughts to Ponder!

I love quotes and thoughts. I come across interesting and thought provoking sayings as I surf the net and read. I have often thought that it is a shame that more children are not taught to memorize sayings in school the way students did in my mother’s day. There are so many great quotes that more people should know. Here is one that recently caught my interest.

Each day there is wonder and joy awaiting you. The growth you experience is just what is needed at this time. You are a student, and the teacher will appear.

 

Trying new things.

Here’s something new I worked up. I’m learning how to crop out elliptical sections of a photo and paste it on to a different background. I like the way this one worked out. Experimenting with this kind of stuff is fun.

More Digital Graphics

These are more GIMP creations. The top one is the original design. The design is done with what is called “Spirogimp”, then different effects were used to alter it.

My first animated graphic

It has been way too long since I posted anything here.

I’ve wanted to but every time I go to post I don’t like what I type. This time I’ve decided to not be so tough on myself. I have been working on a few things in my art and with GIMP.

This is something I created with GIMP. I love the way it turned out.This is my first animation. I want to try and play with this affect a little more. I hope you like it.

Adding to this site

I am slowly adding more things to this page. I’m not sure what to add. I like so many things that it’s hard to decide what to post. I am going through my bookmarks and a few interesting ones. There will be an eclectic selection on this page. I hope there’s something for everyone there.

I added one of my favourite poems (A Prayer) as well. I recently discovered this poem and it really said how I feel.

I will be continuing to add things. I hope you like it.

Have a great day!

Welcome to my little corner of cyberspace!

 

 

I’ve been wanting to create my own small corner of cyberspace for a while. So here I am. I love to write, draw and be creative in any way I can. I want this site to be a happy place where people can visit when they need to take a zen moment.

One of the things I love to do is write in my journal. So one of the things I will be sharing here are journaling prompts and writing ideas. I would love to see what other writing ideas people have.

Poems and stories will also be frequently posted here. If you have any you’d like to share feel free to send them to me. I love all kinds of writing but especially science fiction and fantasy.

Another frequent share here will be graphics and photos. I love beautiful pictures. There will always be something pretty here to look at.

So that’s what this place is about. If you like what you see feel free to come back as often as you like.

Have a great day!

Linda.
