abundance
mixed media collage

we know our lives are abundant when
we feel the joy of laughter
and the release from tears
we are rejuvenated by a ray of sun
or patter of rain on our face
our hearts are buoyed by
nature's simple pleasures
we know we have many things
we could easily live without
hugs and a kind touch are generously
gifted without embarrassment
we choose to feel blessed
with what we have

It's a soothing, beautiful piece. And your words too. And sometimes tears themselves are a release, as I posted today.
Julie, this is just wonderful. You really should get a book published of your mixed media pieces with your little poems underneath or on the opposite pate. I can see it ... and I would buy it!
Beautiful...The collage and the words.
Your lovely picture and poem do remind me of the most important things in life and, when I begin to lament about some of my misfortunes, I do remember than, in some things, I am unbelievably wealthy.
Thank you, Julie, for reminding me!
Your art work is very beautiful! and love the poem too!
So often we forget to count our blessings and not just the big ones but all of them, even the smallest ones.
I'm count you as a wonderful blessing and I thank you so much for posting a link to my blog giveaway. I wish I could say that you were the winner. You did come oh so close. I put all the entries in numerical order, put the numbers into a container and drew. The winner was number 2 "ElDesigns", you were number 1 just a breath away. Again I thank you for your thoughtfulness and your kindness.
love this.
This is a beautiful piece. Your values and love of life shine from your art. Love your heartfelt poem too.
Thanks you for this Julie. What a gogeous warm collage and what wise and true words. xx
This piece makes me smile. I love the way her hair is sucked into the word abundance....like it is doing a 'dance of it's own.
This is wonderful! The texture, that beautiful tree...& I love her hair!!
A beautiful rendering. Very romantic. Amen to your narrative.
Beautiful piece of art, Julie. I love the colors and the content.
I can't wait to get my art that I ordered from you!! I'll let you know as soon as I get it.
Hugs,
Donna
