Childhood Dreams

Hi everyone. Today's post is a pre-post since my daughter has decided to be around for a few nights this week. (And will be back this weekend also.) It's good to have her around since she hasn't been here for a bit, but she does keep me busy, especially since we both  are still going to work. (smile)
So today I have another page for Eileen's fun Dream challenge at Art Journal Journey. 
My page today looks at dreams in 2 different ways, or whichever one  you prefer. Are the adult women eyes looking back on their childhood dreams, or are the children dreaming of the women they will be as adults?

Wishing you all a wonderful Wednesday.

    Wonderful page and I like the duality. Makes me think of a quote from the movie The Natural with Robert Redford and Glenn Close. In the movie, life didn't work out the way they had dreamed when they were young. There's a great quote from Close's character, Iris, and she says, "I believe we have two lives...The life we learn with and the life we live with after that." What we dream and what we end up becoming. Your page reminds me of this. Enjoy the time with your daughter. Stay dry!

    What a wonderful quote, Erika - and I love the idea both ways, with the women looking back and the girls looking forward in time. Beautiful and thought-provoking.

    What a wonderful way to interpret your page pictorially. I just love the way you have set this out and the colour you have used within it. I think this is one of my favourite pages in any bog in a long while. Wonderful!
    Hugs, Neet xx
