more before and after words

Materials used:
collage papers, magazine images, stamp pads, juicy markers, ink, antique photo of little girl, some art quotes that resonated with me at the moment . . . I do tend to just grab whatever comes to hand. Not much planning, and sometimes the pages end up quite chaotic. But I think that expresses me well.
I don't always choose chaos in my life, it seems to choose me, but in the journal - the CHOICE of chaos is mine.
I own it.
That is a sort of empowerment, isn't it?
