The Illustration Friday word of the week is journey.
It seems so fitting that this week’s word is also the title of the painting I use for this blog’s masthead. If I was looking for an external confirmation of my intuition, this would surely be it…
The outer journey is wearing on me these days…and the Inner Journey is calling. (Read the previous post here for more details on this.) I will be taking a leave of absence from blogging for a while…don’t wait up! In the meantime, there is a year’s worth of meaty posts here to catch up on, and if you want to chat like we have been doing (you know who you are), please feel free to drop me a line at artalchemy@mac.com.
Still ’round the corner there may wait, a new road or a secret gate. And though I oft have passed them by, a day will come at last when I shall take the hidden paths that run west of the moon, east of the sun.

Wishing you well.
There’s a reason for everything….good luck!
This is wonderful illustration! Nice colourscheme.
Great illustration as always,
I will miss you and your beautiful work, but sometimes when you inside calls you is better to follow it. I wish you the best
Make of your journey the best for yourself.
Ale.
Bon Voyage, dear one.
i love this
Heisann!
I will miss your words and illustrations, but as you say, I can calmly go back and dive into old posts.
Look forward to see you after your ‘journey’.
Wish you a happy Easter ;:OD)
Great illustration. I like your style.
Okay I have decided we need to change your mind – can’t let such a good artist slip away without a fight, eh?
Love it!
Nice job!
Hi. I happened on your website & blog from your Trade Your Talent interview with Susanna Maier (I agree with, and appreciate your observations about illustrators). You have a wonderful talent and illustration style. I am a fan!
Darn. I’ve been away for a while and now you’re taking a break just when I’m showing my silly head? Serves me right, I guess.
Well, at least I get to see all the posts I’ve missed and they’re all wonderful, Susan. This one especially, has been one of my favorites of yours for some time now.
Take care, OK? Hope to see you soon! oxx
Love your illustration!
I love your art-work – I hope it’s ok that I’ve shared it on pinterest and facebook.
We also share the same wordpress template – it’s really interesting to see another artist using it too. Your site is much more soothing and etherreal than mine though!
Oh how I love the movement in this, the soft background and the great composition. Just beautiful!!!
I’ve been thinking of you and missing your wonderful work. I hope you’re crazy busy with work that fuels you! I hope you’re well.

Love this!
