Part 2
I created these small, double sided slides,
to convey short expressions of meaningful moments
Of meaningful textures
Of meaningful images,
no matter how minute
Together, all tell a story of a life
And a time
No longer present
Small expressions
Big impact
Meaning something to
The person to whom the memento’s belongs
Together they sit
with the bullet – housing a special handwritten note
All items hidden
Ones’ inner-most expressions have meaning only to those who know the owner – hidden messages
Hidden within a tin
Hidden within a book
Which book is it – can you tell me please?

Judy,
I love this, so great! -stace
Love this, and LOVe the slides!! Love it!!! I may have to play Judy style soon!!
All lovely, meaningful, touching...artfully placed pieces, scraps, that tell a story...I love coming to see what you create Judy.
Little bits of life - I love how you put them together so that a melancholy mood is expressed. And putting them in a container within a container; too good. Like the heart is hidden.
beautiful pieces, I think they're inside that fat book there in the middle...or maybe the one with the spine peeling off. Hard to tell really.
How your work always inspires me,How you can fit such alot of information into such small pieces.They look amazing girl.I will say the smallest book on the shelf

I can't wait to see how this is in a book!
Life is made up of fragments... I liked this so very much!

These slides are beautiful. I love all the fragments put together to form the story.
These would make fabulous pieces of jewellery Judy. I love the way everyone tells a story. There looks to be eleven slides, so I'll say the eleventh book on the shelf, that makes it the dark green one.
Just incredible, Judy ... . your work always takes my breath away. I love the compressed texture - untouchable beneath the glass. The small format make these especially precious .. . in that secret treasure manner.

Small expressions...big impact! I do like that concept. It is so exciting to know that there is meaning within each of these small treasures. Nestled within a tin. Safe within a book. Perfect! As to which book...I am guessing the second from the left with the torn spine cover.
I want to make these into jewelry! Lovely!
Judy these little slides are wonderful and just leave me wanting to explore it more of course! I thought Seth was right and it was the second book with the torn spine, but now maybe its the 5th book the smaller one. I just love your work it is so intriguing (spell check please!)lol
Each little masterpiece is more magnificent than the last. Rich inspirations all! I vote for jewelry too.
Absolutely stunning post, I adore your work and blog! Mandy x
Really nice Judy! You go girl! Intriguing art is flowing poetically from you!
It's great to have the opportunity to witness here!
