"as he sees me . . ."

Each week I try to post a story, a photo, my thoughts, a creative project or any combination thereof. For any that regularly visit my journal, I’m sure you noticed my online absence at the end of last week.  I was working on an art project, but one of a different kind.  I suppose you could call it “living art.” Here is a list of the supplies required, as well as the technique utilized.  I hope this will encourage you to make your own creative piece.

Tools and materials:
Beloved natural setting
Loved ones

Technique:
Presence
