Time can be such a gift. And what spirals out of that gift are all the little moments that make life full but fleeting, punctuated by those yawning slow parts, including anticipation, which often leads to a gift.

Time
Time. When I thought about this theme, I immediately thought about how sometimes time moves quickly and sometimes it seems to slow down to just a crawl, and how those dragging moments of time seem so much larger than the bits that fly by. I thought about what makes time slow down. I tried to remember all the things I've done that sped by. There are a lot of books in there.... Then I realized that what was in my head was beyond the capabilities of my 'hobby' status of artist. So here it is. I did this in black and blue ball point and struggled while my scanner didn't pick up the lighter shading. So much to learn.

Not reading your description of the process that went into this, but just looking at the picture, this is such a heavy thing. This one box starts with anticipation, but all the other things that spiral out of it--whoa! The little blue pictures--all the stuff in the meantime, are happy--the playing and trips and fishing and sewing and love and food, etc., but they're all tied together by those big heavinesses, those overwhelming heavinesses.
I really like this, because it got me thinking, and NOW I'll go back and read what you wrote...
I love the combination of words, fonts and imagery!
