For 14 years two friends shared an art journal together, and called it Z BOOK...
Now we want to share it with you. Z pages... and more...

week fifty six >> "friendship caught on fire" Happy May 16th!!!

In the spirit of anniversaries, cycles of seasons, and full circling thresholds, we go from the back inside cover spread, which we shared these past 2 weeks, and now turn to and open up to the front inside cover spread:

Of course this spread was made just as all the other pages, bit by intuitive bit, in layers of spontaneous whim and response, never first, never last, always in the state of becoming, touched upon in non-linear spirit, birthed throughout 14 years. It's fitting that the back cover should lead to the front as they neither indicate an ending OR beginning, but rather BOTH... as such threshold points truly are, like how every change is an end and simultaneously a start, how death is a close that in the same instance is a birth to new life.  How the end of one year begins another. 
Like today! Happy May 16th Hemphill!  This is our special day, the celebration of our "friendship caught on fire" as Bruce Lee described love to be (as quoted here on Z page by Chris Stevens in Northern Exposure :)  
"love is like friendship caught on fire" Bruce Lee
quoted by Chris the Morning, Norther Exposur
And as ZBOOK is also a tribute to our soul kinship and collaboration, it feels great to share this page with you on this day.  Up in the right corner it says "This is a Book of Lives"  In the bottom right corner is a photo sticker of us taken in a sticker machine on the Santa Cruz boardwalk in spring of 1999, seems to me that you were quite possibly observing a celebration for May 16th that day.  This page soon peculated into an homage of our synergy and gratitude for each other. 

The quote Jennifer wrote on on the left is perfect tone setter for our flip from back to front or end to start.... I would answer the question posed with a singular yet all encompassing YES.

love you Hemphill!
