Art journal page for a friend's birthday

As summer ends, and the seasons move on, I remember my friend Lizzzie whose birthday is tomorrow!
Happy Birthday, Lizzzie!

Looking

Art journal page for today....

"Looking" for happiness.... "Looking" for a way out. "Looking" for new beginnings. "Looking" for hope. "Looking" for friends. "Looking" for beauty. "Looking" for meaning. "Looking" for good use of time and talent. It could be many things....always coming back to the abundance of blessings in life!

Botswana--or is that a Lilac Breasted Roller???

I don't know if this is very satisfying as a collage.

A page about Botswana, after reading the Alexander McCall Smith mystery series set there. I do like the Rumi quote and the flying birds!

And the bird on the branch, may be called a "Lilac Breasted Roller". What an exotic bird!
