No Need to Hurry-Assemblage

Paying tribute to Women Artists is like valuing your inspiration.  I like beautiful surfaces and colors, but I also value deeper mysterious, darker sentiments. This assemblage honors Virginia Woolf, a significant English author of the 20th Century. She battled mental illness, possibly bi-polar disorder, and 59 when she felt depression coming she killed herself by filling her pockets with rocks and walking into a river.

Her quote, " No need to hurry, no need to sparkle, no need to be anyone but oneself", is incorporated in this collaged memorial. It is a great reminder to be calm, genuine, and comfortable in one's own skin.
