Catalyst 60 is up at the Creative Therapy website.
And it's about the best vacation you've ever had!
I've chosen to tell about the first time I've been to Paris
What I had to say about this trip: I’ve already had the opportunity of getting to know places with incredible natural beauty, however, Paris, in summer, was a wonderful first time experience: not only the city was beautiful but, the cultural experience from which I took advantage of was unforgettable.I lost my breath at the Louvre museum and appreciated every garden, “bistro”, cafe and every stroll in its merry-go-round. I enjoyed the magnificent architecture, with facades cut out of enchantment, history, richness, beauty and art. Being Camille Claudel’s fan and follower, I could observe an exposition of hers at the Rodin museum, where all his works of art were exposed outdoors…oh, “The Gates of Hell”, a work of a lifetime I saw it personally!In Montmartre, I ran up and down the slopes, enjoyed rue Lepic and “Les Deux Moulains” café with a friend, observed Salvador Dali’s works of art, outdoor artists, couples kissing on the grass, and I followed the routes from the movie Amélie Poulain…Every “boulangerie”, glass of wine, chocolate éclaire, ‘macarron”, were delightedly tasted…not to mention the boat tours along river Sena and the walks through magnificent bridges.Every cultural tour was followed by a nice break, to the sound of Piaf, or any other great French music.A delicious crepe, a walk filled with fashion windows as I’ve never seen before: getting to know Gautier’s atelier, the Champs Elysée boutiques and walking through any street, filled with postcards and time magazines, full of newspapers and old fashion magazines to buy, take home and cut out… I still got to experience the 14th of July fireworks, giant illuminated wheels, love kisses and dinner at “Le Grand Colbert”, Keanu Reeves and Diane Keaton’s scenario…and, to finish up, like if wasn’t enough, my husband and I were in a very romantic mood!I don’t have critics about the trip, an “otherwise” or a “coma”. The only sadness was to go back home when there was still so much to see and appreciate. Nowadays I only have a wish: returning as often as possible…
I´ve made two projects about it.
The first one is a layout.
The second is this book-project:
After making the page above, I decided to work on the day I spent at Versailles palace, trying to capture all its luxyry and the enchantment of the "hameau de Marie Antoinette". .. This is the project I submitted to the website.
