lightning blue eyes

It was too hot in Texas to wear a jacket.

Today I'm linking Inspiration Monday
with Two Birds. Click on the above links to see how they styled it.

My blue art journal pages.

It's supposed to say: "I have broken the blue boundary of color limits, come out into the white beside me comrade-pilots swim in this infinity."-Kasmir Malevich

 Apparently I misspelled comrade, duh me.
Yes, I'm using my thrifted purse I hand-painted, again. 
My blouse is thrifted.


"Under the weight of persuasion
When you changed your mind
I left the ground you just gave in
It was the only time 

My cousin made my earrings.
I felt awake I was way out
Under the closing night
Just as the morning became us
And we were only sky

My shoes are thrifted.
Why change love
Why change
Why change
Listen my love

In your dreams you
Through a window so far off
Remember watching while your
Lightning blue eyes reflected sunrise 

And through the dawn I
I caught a glimpse I thought was you
And I was overwhelmed
Lightning blue eyes against the daylight 


I felt awake I was way out
It was the only time
She
Oh when you change your mind

Cause in her dreams she
Through a window so far off
Remember watching while her
Lightning blue eyes reflected sunrise

When I taught preschool,
a million years ago,
one of the kids gave me this heart necklace
on Valentine's day.




And through the dawn I

I caught a glimpse I thought was her
And I was overwhelmed
Lightning blue eyes against the daylight"

  11. I can imagine it being too hot for a jacket in Texas. Wearing one right now in South Carolina might as well come with mandatory phone to call an ambulance for heat stroke.

  12. I'm wearing bright blue jeans right now! It's like we're cosmically connected or something. You always find the best things at thrift stores, you lucky lady.

  21. You must have touched a lot of lives to have so many hand-made pieces of jewellery! I like your hand-painted bag, you're so creative! Next time I hope you'll show a close-up
