Hi artists!
I’ve hit the ground running – yet again! Busy weekend! Busy week ahead as my daughters’ birthday party planning is in full swing! I’m a few days behind with this post, suffice it to say!
CSI Case 206 is a stunner! I adore the scheme we had to work with and I decided to go with the first prompt – journal about patriotism. Here is the challenge:
And here is how I solved this case:
Scheme : all there
Evidence : stars, frames, wood, grid
Testimony : journal about patriotism
It’s safe to say that the majority of us love our home country / town. I’m no exception; despite knowing that there are aspects of my country and how its run that leaves a lot to be desired.
That aside, I’m so proudly South African, it’s ridiculous. I savour long scenic drives and I relish in the beauty that is right on my doorstep.
I get goosebumps and incredibly emotional when I see how my fellow South Africans look out for each other and where they succeed on an international level. I’m proud of a myriad of things that is “just ours”; e.g. Pinotage wine, etc.
I’m proud of my Afrikaans heritage and background.
I’m proud that I will raise my daughter right here in this country, despite a few worries that I do have.
I love my country. I always, ALWAYS will. No one will change that – and I refuse to let them.
Here are some close ups:
