Army of Ink #82

She arrived with a carpet bag and a dream …

This ink arrived around the  time of making bags to fill with books to gift to young people.   And I do have a thing for the Mary Poppin’s movie/story too.   But I also think, to survive, you have to have a bag of sorts (imaginary or real) to carry with you.  Something to keep filling with things collected along the way that help you get through the tough times and tricky moments.  Serve to map a path forward.  Contain what we’ve achieved so far.  Store things that support us to be strong, independently minded individuals – to survive and create positive changes in our lives.   Clunk and Jam notes even?  Or imagine it’s a bottomless bag (like Mary Poppin’s), forever sprouting new treats, treasures – ideas and directions.   And the beauty of this drawing (of all art and drawing), is that it allows others to have their own perception of the image – invites their own story to the page.  So please pass her on, no doubt there’s plenty of stories in that old carpet bag - awaiting an ink pen or an old typewriter to help them spill …. pop back soon for more art and stories…
