Week Nine 'Art' Task

For week Nine's tute task, we were asked to create a piece of art, or we take a picture of something we'd made previously and then scan/upload it into our blog. I've never really made much art in my life, purely because I'm really bad at being artistic or creative-I'd say drawing a stick figure is as arty as I get lol. I would love to be able to sketch, paint or be good at any arts & crafts, but although I try-unfortunately I wasn't born with the arty gene. So when it came to this tute task, I was definitely pondering what on earth I could come up with. Last year (when I have a few personal things going on and was feeling a bit down for a while) I made a collage of images/words of things I enjoy/like in life that make me happy. Pictures/words of travel, destinations, and things that are special and enjoyable to my life (e.g. friends, family, home, beach etc) were put togehter into a photo frame, which I've hung in my room so when I'm feeling down or pondering things-it reminds me of all the things that make me happy. Anyway although it isn't a masterpiece but it's probably the closest thing to art I've made and meant something to me at the time I was putting it together. I guess it felt a bit like self reflection. Well here's the image below:
