Post Your Vision Board Pics on flickr.com

Posted on March 17, 2007 by Lisa

Vision Board ‘06

Forgive me — my digital camera is still at the repair factory, which is why I am using my ’06 vision board photo to illustrate this post. My apologies for the redundancy. There are currently three (yes, 3!) different vision boards in my house: two for the writing part of my life and one for my life as a whole. One is on my bedroom wall, within easy eyeball range upon waking each morning. Another is hanging next to the medicine cabinet in the bathroom. And the other is on the door to my art and sewing room. Could I have any more visual reminders?!* I don’t think so.

There have been so many visitors — from around the world! — to this blog since I began posting about vision boards. So exciting for someone who has always loved mail, correspondence, pen pals, and worldwide travel. Watching the stats, incoming links, and search phrases that brought people here has been armchair travel in a whole new form of transport.

I recently went mozeying around flickr.com and soon discovered that there was no group for Vision Board Collages … so I created one! Please take a gander over there. If you’re not already a flickr member, consider joining and adding photos of your vision board collage(s). And if you are a member, why not join the Vision Board Collage group and post your pics today? The more the merrier!

Morning thread work has been a favorite way to sta Morning thread work has been a favorite way to start a day since I was a kid. My first sewing lesson was at age 4 or 5, when my Aunt Mary let me help hand stitch a flannel bed jacket for my new baby sister. My impatient grandmother tried to teach me how to knit when I was 5. The instructions didn’t stick but I figured it out on my own after falling in love with mini skeins of angora at the 5 & 10 store (remember those?!), and immediately went into headband production! One after another, all in garter stitch. For me, stitching in quiet solitude is a form of meditation. A perfect setup for the day. #embroidery #mornings

Sunday painting session with @innerpeaceartstudio Sunday painting session with @innerpeaceartstudio . The prompt was painted blobs. Despite cat #1 looking like a jazzed up potato, I could not stop! At some point in the flow I got the idea to paint some of the cats of my childhood. In the winter we burned paper trash in the fireplace to supplement what served as central heat in our very old house on Nantucket. Our (many!) cats and kittens would join us, huddled on the bricks to warm themselves, too. This funny little painting feels like the beginning of that writing project a couple of friends have been nudging me to start. Here’s looking at you @dianelesbecquets and @bettinacaserta ! What a fun — and surprising — day of painting. #artforwellness #watercolor #cats_of_instagram #memoir

“A Mother’s Story” told in four walls with needle, “A Mother’s Story” told in four walls with needle, thread and memory bits and found objects. These four walls are an interpretation of my mother’s life experience. The cloth houses were a craft workshop project, intended as decorative objects. Hand stitching is like a silent moving meditation for me. The motion of the hand stitching was the spark that launched this piece. So caught up was I with the storytelling bug that I stayed up stitching until I had completed two of these ‘memoir houses’.

We made stamps with pliable erasers and found impressionable surfaces on her patio to ink. The green ‘dots’ in first pic were made by pressing the putty eraser onto a decorative metal shelf.
