We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time.

And the score is ...... passion 1, music 1

It is the Craft Barn's 10th Quotes & Lyrics challenge, and the words are PASSION and MUSIC.

I  found a quote that includes both words - by Friedrich Nietzsche - which says it all (in few words)!

In music the passions enjoy themselves

A bit of an abstract entry this time.  Cut some heart shapes from sheet music, and stuck them on a 10 x 8 sheet of thick card, then randomly brayered acrylic paint, using some iridescent paint.  Flicked a little white paint, and used a squiggly heart stamp, together with a large musical note stamp.

The rest is done with my trusty pens.

I nearly missed the "O" in passion, but managed to squeeze it in!

    Fantastic background! (I made a mistake in writing out mine too and had to "faff" to get it sorted... The quote is great, well done for finding a joint one. Love the hearts. Did I say I loved the background?! LOL!

    Great page - I love the background. I too left a letter out in one of my words and had to fix the problem - all part of the creative process! :)

    This is incredibly clever. What a find to be able to use both words in one quote. The way you represented the quote is ingenious, too. Overall, this is a genuine winner in my book. Sorry I'm late visiting, but my internet woes continue to give me fits.
