My Art

The Girl With Kaleidoscope Eyes.

Let me set the stage for you.

The year is 2019 and the whole world is shut down. I was knitting like my life depended on it, because I guess it did, but I was so bored with knitting.

I also had a thought that I would like to be a fashion designer. I had stacks of knitting magazines and fashion magazines. I would read them then set them aside because I didn’t want to throw them away, but I also didn’t want to keep them.

We had a paper shredder in the corner and one day I decided to shred them because they were taking up so much space.

I looked through the shredded paper and thought how pretty it was, so many colors.

At times I get a song stuck in my head on repeat and at this time it was The Beatles, Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds.

So I put together a girl with kaleidoscope eyes with the shredded magazine pages.

Of course this was after I decided I didn’t want to be a fashion designer and after the lockdown was over.

More to come.
