The soul is a butterfly...there's an instant in which a voice tells us that the moment of a great metamorphosis has arrived.

Here are more pages of the book I have been altering. I still have a long way ahead.Hope I can finish by December. Rubem Alves is one of my favourite writers. He's Brazilian like me. He passed away this year. I guess he must be playing in heavens.

Estou alterando um livro, transformando cada página em algo só meu. Ele está recheado de citações, desenhos, pinturas, colagens, pensamentos e preocupações. É um pouco de mim em forma de arte.

T stands for Traditions

Hello My Coffee & Tea Drinkers Friends!

November has just arrived and today is Day of the Dead here. In Brazil, people go to graveyards or churches to pay tribute to their beloved ones.Most of times, we offer flowers and candles to those we love and passed away

I don't know why but it always rains on this day. It is a public holiday here and although we don't want to admit, it is a sad day.

But

I want you to see how different our cemiteries are from yours. However, the feeling is the same no matter where you are. Life goes on...

Let's forget about it huh!

Well...

I am altering another book and I want to share what I've been doing...so here we go...

“Life can only be understood backwards; but it must be lived forwards.”

― Søren Kierkegaard 

 I created the face above for 29 faces. Now it is here.

 My altered book is filled with my thoughts on life and quotes I love.

 More quotes. This time on butterflies. It is a collage here.

Inside the envelope, there is a lovely letter my daughter wrote me for my birthday. It is beautiful.The face you see I Designed for The Summer of Color.

Before I leave you today, I'd like to share a quote:

“Love is how you stay alive, even after you are gone.” 
― Mitch Albom
