There’s Something About…
Janice Badger

 |
In 1998 (yes, it was almost 10 years ago!), the movie There’s Something About Mary had audiences laughing out loud at Ben Stiller’s antics trying to get Mary to notice him. Mary had brains, beauty, compassion, and athleticism. But more than that, she had that indescribable “IT”, and every man who met her fell in love with her. You know when someone has “IT”, although you probably can’t always accurately describe what “IT” is. “IT” makes someone or something stand out from the crowd.

Design note:
Don't be afraid to get a bit messy! I had
this layout on the floor of my studio and
was throwing white paint at it from the end
of a toothbrush! All of that before I stuck
the photo on, of course. Also, when next you
are out shopping, try some "other" types of
shops such as hardware stores, dollar shops,
and charity shops in order to find some
embellishments that are a little
"different".

Tag:
It is lines on a liquid medium, the only limitations the wave itself, every
line drawn according to an inner aesthetic
shaped by experience, influences, and, not
the least, temperament. (Quote from: Wave
Riders Gallery 2007)

note:
I just had to use glitter on my wave lettering and on the circular frame.
Reminded me of reflections on the ocean.

Journaling:
It lives in the
seven seas, constantly reborn by the earth’s
tides. Interrupted by land, it journeys
backwards rejoining the massive waters
surrounding our planet. It starts again.
Spurred forward by the churning and
undulating of the deepest oceans. Those who
seek it amass at the shore. Boards in hand,
together waiting, watching, knowing it
exists. It is coming. It is art. It is life.
It is nature. It is elusive. It only takes
one, and you know you have found it. That
singular, perfect wave, which you ride,
feeling it carry you, becoming one with it,
until it tosses you on the shore,
breathless, knowing in that moment you have
achieved it. You have known it. You have
felt it. You have lived it. The perfect
wave.
