Good Morning! its a fabulous start to the day! Now I've got to go to work... I thought I'd give you a sneak peak into what I got all fired up about this morning. Yesterday I wrote a little bit about my Pen Pal Bonnie and today is small continuation of that. Several months ago I made her the beginnings of a small art journal. Once a month or so we exchange pages that are 4x4 for each others journals. Though she laments that she's not quite cut out for it I believe that her pages are completely wonderful and gorgeous. As part of her Christmas Surprise I'm working on several 4x4 pages for her journal. I started out this morning with Mixed Media paper from Strathmore that I cut to 16x16. I then just started playing with my favorite stencils and gesso. Then I brought out Burnt Umber, Azure Blue, and Deep Rose gouche. I applied it liberally with a brush and then spread it around with a baby wipe. I'm totally in love with the results. I was on a roll, but the reality of daily life, sigh....
My thoughts are that I'll come back with script stamps and my own lettering before I start cutting down it to mini journal size.
I'll be back, muse readers!!! Enjoy the Season!
