FRIENDS
COMMITTEE AND COMMUNITY SUITS
Heidi Cartmel

I am the one who loves the company of friends. I grow and bloom with my friends. I am fed and feel nourished. I discover new things. I travel the world with someone to lean on and offer a shoulder to be leaned on in return. Friends let me be my true self and love me all the more. I find my wings...with a little help from my friends.

Artist's statement
SoulCollage™ is a different creative outlet for me. I am used to working with and making more three-dimensional projects. So, this is a different process and result for me. Sometimes, it is hard to relay my thoughts and feelings into a one-dimensional card. Then I remind myself it has as much depth as you give it. That's part of the challenge (and fun), to let it speak your true voice.
