I found the ironing board at a thrift store a long time ago- like at least 5 years ago- It started out a light brown. So I stained it dark -
Obviously I outlined the wave... (note about waves- I really like them because they mean two things to me at least. First they are constant. I love the fact that they are constant. Sometimes big sometimes small but always rolling against the shore. That is a goal of mine to be constant. Next they are beautiful and a gift from God. The waves say to me, "Beautiful things don't just happen, they are made."
Then I painted the wave and using my friends Cruicit. I cut out all these little letters and mod lodged them on. IT turned out like this...
Do you have a family motto??
it kind of looked most interesting in photo 1, I'd have hung it as it was, but that's me. I never thought of waves as representing constancy before either, they seem the paradigm of motion, transience, change. Now I guess they represent two things for me then, constancy and transience, and the false dichotomy that those two ideas therefore are. I always think of the soul as a wave too, something that needs a medium (water, air etc) to exist, but can't be reduced to the medium.
ReplyDeleteDo we have a family motto? Lots of family sayings, but no, no motto. God be with you guys
