about the piece.
In Angie's words, "I created this piece as the first page of the traveling journal for still life 365. I had been procrastinating this piece because I just had been so busy, but when I sat down, I remembered these lines that had been floating through my head for days, 'I dreamed you once with purple eyes' and 'love is my center'. My only experience with Lucy alive and interacting with me was a dream I had where she clung to my belly, and looked up at me, smiling, with purple eyes. I cling to the memory of that dream as much as to the time we spent together after her birth." You can read and contribute to the traveling journal in the about the journal section of this blog.
