I know that I have been a little behind in my FJC, but I've wanted to do some thinking on the prompts. One of these great conumdrums for me was asking me... when I grow up what did I want to be. At first, I started with a very colorful page and was going to display all the things I dreamed about as a child of what it would be like to be a grown up.
However, once I got started I found myself stuck. I didn't know where else to go, so I left the page alone for the day and decided I would return later. The following day, I was in Borders and happened across a book called Agate; it was a delightful story, but the watercolor pictures where absolutely exquiste. So when I got home I decided to miminic a lion that I had seen in the book. Mine turned out significantly different but I loved it none the less.
When I had finished I realized that I had just completed the prompt for the day before that had so eluded me. When I grow up, I want to still possess my inner playful child. It was perfect in its simplicity.
